AC Milan are looking to reinforce the attacking trio with one player that can play in the centre and to the right, which is what Stefano Pioli has requested. Three top players have been identified, a report claims.
According to today’s edition of Corriere Dello Sport (via MilanNews), the players in question are Marcos Asensio, Charles De Ketelaere and Hakim Ziyech. The situation for each of them is very different, which Milan must take into account.
Asensio has one year left on his contract and while Real Madrid are asking for €30m now, their demands could be lowered as the summer goes on. Ziyech, meanwhile, is not in Chelsea’s plans and he could leave on a loan formula, though his salary is an issue (€6.5m per year).
Finally, De Ketelaere is Club Brugge’s biggest talent and they won’t let him go for anything less than €30m. His salary, however, would certainly not be a problem for Milan as he currently earns very little compared to the other two targets. These are the factors Maldini and Massara must take into account, in other words.
None of them coming. Milan will settle for de le feu in the end.

Could do far worse than Deulofeu TBF.
I suspect Asensio will stay at Madrid or go to Manchester United and CDK will struggle to turn down Leeds with the money they’ll make from selling Raphina.
Ziyech is probably attainable, but I don’t think he’d fit well into this team personally and his age/salary would make him difficult to move on.
With Deulofeu you know what you get. And the price isn’t that bad. And at least he REALLY wants to play for the Rossoneri. He has never hidden his desire to return.
ACM and Maldini should only settle for Charles De Ketelaere
It is the best solution, not just financial for ACM
This player will take them to where they need to be in challenging for Europe and future
I bet they would if they could. It’s not the M&M-duo who is holding back the transfers…
I think Milan should have just added 2more mils and got Faivre for 15mil. It was the cheapest option for improving the RW. Now it seems like it was a huge mistake missing out on him since they cant find anything for less than 30mil. Not to mention the big salarys on some of this players. Also this players are not exectly 30mil worthy since some are old, injury prone, other’s unproven, and some are not really even primary Right Wingers in the first place.
Faivre is a top player at OL on the right wing and is now worth 30m another fuck up because now we will look at something like Antonio candreava for like 5m. We need CDK to reinforce the AM position and adli to help and send Brahmin back and zyiech on the right.
