GdS: Why Milan are hesitant to make move for West Ham striker

By Isak Möller -

AC Milan are working on signing a striker ahead of next season, after the departure of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and Gianluca Scamacca is one of their targets. However, the Rossoneri are not sure about him. 

Scamacca joined West Ham ahead of this past season but due to injuries, it hasn’t been an easy first year for him. He found the back of the net just eight times in all competitions and he could thus move on loan this summer.

According to Gazzetta Dello Sport, Milan are interested in the former Sassuolo man and have even held talks. However, Marcus Thuram is their main target for the attack and these two players are very different.

Milan are thus evaluating Scamacca from a different perspective, as signing him instead of Thuram would make for a very different Milan. Furthermore, he would arrive on an initial loan and a transfer fee would eventually have to be paid, unlike Thuram who is available on a free transfer.

Scamacca’s poor form must also be added as a factor, even though Milan know what he’s capable of (as shown in Serie A).

  1. Don’t forget Retegui as well. If we don’t get Thuram or Scamacca. Retegui should be an option (If Inter don’t get him by then). He is afordable at some 18-20mil. Then other option is Icardi for free as well. But that should be the option if everything else fails i guess.

  2. The owners aren’t sure about him simply because he isn’t a free transfer which is all they’re interested in.

  3. Personally, would love to see Scamacca on loan with an option to buy. Again a gamble but IMO would be a huge upgrade if he stayed fit.

  4. I love this guy. I could tell he was head and shoulders above his peers when he played in Serie A. Definitely worth the investment but…..well …..u know lol
