Di Marzio: Milan targeting 19-year-old Rosario Central sensation with agent in Italy

AC Milan are exploring various options having recovered a non-EU spot and one of them is the possibility of signing a striker from Argentina, a report claims.

According to the latest from Gianluca Di Marzio, the Milan management are examining the idea of signing a young striker and Alejo Veliz of Rosario Central is a player that is very much on their list.

The 19-year-old centre-forward has been a revelation for Rosario Central, scoring 11 goals in 22 league games thus far, while he is also making a name for himself on the international stage having scored three times in four U20 World Cup games for Argentina.

The Rossoneri have one non-EU slot left after today’s FIGC ruling regarding players from the United Kingdom, so they could do the deal later on in the window.

The player’s agent is in Milan and there could be a meeting in the coming days to lay out the groundwork.
