One of the areas that AC Milan are expected to make a signing this summer is in defence, and a familiar old name has once again emerged as a target.
As Calciomercato.it write, Lucas Martinez Quarta was one of the players who got on the scoresheet for Fiorentina last night in their rout of relegation-threatened Sassuolo at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
It is a fifth goal in the league for the 27-year-old central defender, making a total of eight goals across all competitions. His performances since joining La Viola mean that he is attracting the attention of several clubs too.
The former River Plate man is of interest to Milan who need defensive reinforcements, even if to date there has been no direct or indirect contact between the parties.
Likewise, there are currently no ongoing negotiations between Fiorentina and the player’s entourage to discuss the contract extension, which expires in 2025.
The possibility of reaching a new agreement is not excluded, there is no closure on this front, but Martinez Quarta’s situation needs to be monitored especially if Milan come forward and offer Champions League football.
Back in 2020, the agent of the defender claimed that Geoffrey Moncada – then the chief scout but now the technical director – had scouted his client several times.
another random name that brings nothing to the team
Random name yh but better get Milenkovic from fiorentina also it’s not good to go back like a dog and try to please players that rejected you in the past
Quarta has not been very consistent. He played really solid at the beginning when he joined but then he was up and down and lost his starting spot a few times. This year he’s been on the bench since Milenkovic-Ranieri is the starting duo. Shame, by now, he could have been a lot better.
Frankly I can’t say that he’s better than any of our central defenders (Tomori, Thiaw or Gabbia).
Dunno if this is something that the player’s agent is throwing to the media, considering that his contract ends next year.
I want to make love to all the girls in my street …. but do not manage.
Milan wants to buy every single player under the sun ……. but do not manage.
