AC Milan could make a late attempt to bolster the No.9 role this summer, according to a report, with stars such as Victor Osimhen and Dusan Vlahovic on their radar.
With just Santiago Gimenez left in the squad, following the departures of Tammy Abraham and Luka Jovic, Milan need to sign someone for the No.9 role this summer. Instead of three players for the role, the priority seems to be having two top-class strikers.
According to Carlos Passerini of Corriere della Sera, as transcribed by Il Garante, Milan could wait with their No.9 pursuit until August in order to get the best price possible. Why? Because top players like Osimhen (still owned by Napoli) and Vlahovic are on their radar.
If the Nigerian is still available by mid-August, as the journalist states, then Milan will try to make an attempt. It won’t be an easy negotiation even late on in the window, though, and that’s why an attempt for Vlahovic cannot be excluded in the first days of August.
The well-known Juventus journalist Gianni Balzarini has already reported that Vlahovic ‘has chosen Milan’ and that the Bianconeri are willing to accept a bid of around €25m. In short, the Serbian could be the perfect solution, also given his relationship with Max Allegri.
For the pre-season, meanwhile, Gimenez should be the main striker for Milan and it’s possible that Francesco Camarda could stick around a bit before moving on loan. Lorenzo Colombo has also returned from his loan spell, so Allegri won’t be without options.
Salary issues with both. So far above what we’re willing and able to pay.
I’d definitely prefer Osimhen to Vlahovic but dont see either of them joining.
Vlahovic costs x3 from Vlahovic. Just the transfer fee. Not realistic for Milan.
*Osimhen. 70M or more
All we want is Allegri to win the scudetto, we should just leave Allegri and Tara to it, they have a lot to prove to all concerned with the seria A, so for their EGO’S sake they will prove a point.
It will be battle of Conte v Allegri and that is what seria A will be about next season, I can assure everyone that!!
All the other managers are quite literally saying that because it is so OBVIOUS!!
OSIMEHN SHOULD BE THE ONLY OPTION, IF HE’D BE WILLING TO RETURN BACK TO ITALY? THEN IT SHOULD BE THE NIGERIAN…
If there’s a slimmest of chance we could get Osimhen, we must explore it with all precision.
Another waste of time. Day dreaming again, wake up you guys ffs !
Even if we had the money (we dont) or were willing to pay (we are not), why would Osimehn join a sh1t team like Milan?
He should go to Arsenal or Barca or PSG
Sell Jimenez buy osimhen.
When they don’t try for a good player, you complain they are incompetent.
When there’s news finally that they do, you still complain that the player wouldn’t come.
This Osimehn story is fantasy.
If our owners were willing to keep our best players and add more young talent each year we would be happy and successful. Unfortunately that is not the case
Nobody expects us to sign top level talent, especially now we finished 9th and sold our best player. It’s just not an attractive place to go for a top player with ambitions to win.
I’d be surprised if Pulisic and Leao don’t try to force an exit now given the state of the team/club
Es yes yes – let’s wait till the last minute like we always do because that has always worked for us in the past 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I’m sure we won’t end up with players such as Tammy and Jovic again – instead of players like Oshimen and Vlahovic LMAO
Fkn 🤡 show
We´ve never targeted them before. Last year the objective was Fofana and we got him. The year before it was CDK and we got him. So far we´ve always had the players we´ve (really) targeted. Maybe we should have other targets, but that´s a different discussion. If we want a player we usually get him so don´t act like it´s a clown show on that front.
