Since joining Milan, Musah has struggled to iron out a place in the team. Whether as a starter or rotational option, the midfielder has not been able to make himself a go-to, and this is not just in one position, unfortunately.
He would always need time, but there has been a difference between the level of expectation and the level of acceptance. For the former Arsenal academy player, he has fallen short of both, so the gamble has not paid off.
Never dying interest
With Napoli being interested last summer, it is somewhat of a gift that they have remained in the picture for the American. However, Antonio Conte’s appreciation for the midfielder has not changed, and he will get his target a summer late.
Things have moved quickly, and it could be finalised in the next few days, with Gianluca DI Marzio providing an update for Sky, as Milan News transcribes.
“Napoli are very close to Musah, draft agreement between the two clubs: it is a total deal of 25 million euros. It was a lightning deal, concluded in just a few hours. Together with Kevin De Bruyne, Conte will therefore also have Musah at his disposal.”
