GdS: Milan wanting two midfield reinforcements – Chelsea pair on the radar

Amid the apprehension that Ismael Bennacer’s absence could end up being a very long one, AC Milan are targeting a midfield reinforcement in January and there are four names that stand out.

According to what is being reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) this morning, Paulo Fonseca is having to ask his current pairing of Tijjani Reijnders and Youssouf Fofana to work overtime because of the lack of a natural deputy for both.

The more the duo are stretched, the more they run the risk not being able to keep up this pace until the end of the season. In January, therefore, Geoffrey Moncada and co. could go after not one but two midfielders to try and give depth to the department.

Morten Frendrup of Genoa is the latest name to emerge as a potential back-up for Fofana and he would cost around €20m, but Johnny Cardoso of Real Betis and the USA national team is also considered a candidate.

In terms of signing a box-to-box player who can deputise Reijnders, Milan could turn back to Chelsea talent Carney Chukwuemeka after being linked in the summer. Not only that, but Cesare Casadei – who declared himself a boyhood Milan fan yesterday – is also on the list.

      1. Casadei and Frendrup is unfortunately all that we can do… should finally get covers for Fofana and Reijnders… hope for a ST as well

  1. Milan should and must sign these 2 players. Chukwuemeka would be a good backup for Reinjders and he can also play AM. Casadei is a must if we can’t get Ricci.

  2. Casadei is a must Carney on the other hand can be avoided. As a backup for Reijnders my preferences are Kokcu kinda expensive, Joey Veerman or try for Gabri Veiga?

    1. Joey Veerman has shows multiple times that he can’t play well at a higer level. Kokcu is way to expensive, especially as a backup.

  3. We need an attacking midfielder Acmilan should sign ritsu Doan and Dario let give musah a chance in the central midfield he has improved alot and let’s sell out Loftus cheek and tomori that have make Acmilan ton conserve too many Goals

  4. Didn’t management say we only needed 4 signings and that we were “complete”???

    What happened to the “untouchable” Musah?? You know the 20M backup that can’t backup anyone????? So now we have to buy another mid to back up Fofana because Musah cannot??? LOL. Brilliant. We had Adli who is now shining at Fiorentina but we let him go only to buy a more expensive midfielder like the ones mentioned in this article?? But we can’t really because we can’t spend over 20M on a player transfer? LOL. Brilliant!!

    We had Maldini (homegrown Italian) who we let leave for FREE – who is now shining at Monza – and called up to national team – and now we have to buy another expensive and overrated foreigner in Carney who can’t play for Chelsea??? LOLOLO. Brilliant!

    Ya we are definitely on the right track with this genius management team 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡. Brilliant!!!

    1. 😂 🤣 😂 🤣 😂 🤣
      Management be catching deserved flak out here. Oooo those statements and actions did not age well.
      🤣😂🤣

      I seriously cannot see how anyone can still support and or defend this ownership and their management by now.

      But am sure I would be shown another believer.
      To think the previous management actually had a goal, thought out plan and vision.

      Oh Milan my milan
