AC Milan are waiting for news on the situation of Yacine Adli, but at the moment everything is on pause due to uncertainty at Fiorentina.
According to MilanNews, Fiorentina’s decision on Adli is essentially tied to who will be the next coach. Raffaele Palladino could leave in the summer and that is why, for the time being, definitive judgements regarding loan players are on hold.
As a reminder, Adli joined La Viola last summer on a season-long loan deal, with a €2m loan fee and a €10m option to buy. Before suffering an injury, the Frenchman had taken a central role in the midfield, with a string of positive performances in Serie A and in Europe.
Milan and Fiorentina, in addition to the Adli situation, also have Riccardo Sottil to talk about. He arrived towards the end of the winter transfer window and he also has a €10m buy-out clause as part of the loan.
Both clubs have always let it be known that the two operations are to be considered unrelated, but in this case there could be a mutual interest in making things work, given that both players have the same market value.
It will take a little more time and, above all, the new Fiorentina coach to give Adli a precise direction regarding the 2025-26 season and possibly beyond.
Try to get back Adli if possible.
I don’t think we’ve seen enough of Sottil to decide if he is worth purchasing or not
He should be back to current poor Milan Midfielders as no one can play the tempo and hold the ball
Still a better midfielder than RLC, Musah, Fofana and I dare say Bondo too. An actual passer.
too early to tell on Bondo tbh. And Bondo’s role should be as #6. we dont need great passers there, that’s what Tiji/Fofana are there for. To be far, Adli did great as a defensive mid for us when he played. Even though it wasnt his natural role. Better than Musah and RLC. Plus, like Musah and unlike RCL, Adli is still young.
Adli and them have different types of playing styles. Stupid comparison. Musah needs a coach that can utilize him properly the talent is there. Just like Adli last season now he’s different with a coach that understands him.
Adli isn’t good enough to play in a championship winning team. He’s too slow and gives away the ball in dangerous areas.
Fiorentina thinking about it says it all.
