GdS: Milan serious in pursuit of AZ Alkmaar star amid new contacts

AC Milan have held new talks with AZ Alkmaar over their star midfielder Tijjani Reijnders and the player appears to be getting closer to the Rossoneri. Important updates could arrive very soon. 

Milan need to bolster their midfield and won’t just stop with the signing of Ruben Loftus-Cheek. At least two more midfielders should arrive and Reijnders will likely be one of them, with the Rossoneri currently negotiating.

According to Gazzetta Dello Sport, as cited by our colleagues at SempreMilan.it, Giorgio Fiurlani have held new talks with both the player and AZ Alkmaar. The price tag is around €18m and a deal could be closed using bonuses related to player performance.

The 24-year-old can play ion the midfield tandem in a 4-2-3-1 but also on either side in a 4-3-3 formation. It remains to be seen which formation Stefano Pioli will choose for next season, but most likely it will be a mix of the two.

    1. You kidding? We at least have one starting level striker for one spot and we have Origi and Rebic still on the books too.

      In midfield, we’ve lost Tonali, Bakayoko, Vranckx, Bennacer is out until ’24 and we never really replaced Kessie.

      We currently have Krunic, Pobega and maybe now Loftus-Cheek. For the two spots that need to cover most ground (apart from full backs).

      IMO, we’d like to upgrade our strikers and right-wing, but we need midfielders.

  1. This should have been our first signing. Low cost, potential, still young, doesn’t have glass legs and actually knows how to play ball but moneyball strategy knows otherwise

      1. This guy is not a DM also. ? He played most as CM and also played LW, RW, AMC and more. This guy is more an AMC than DM, so I’m not sure what are you saying. Anyhow, Kamada is free, a better choice for Milan without money. Amrabat is a DM, that is the player Milan should get for that position.

        1. He play more at DM than AM. This guy is like Krunic who can play many positions.

          If you look at AZ matches in transfermarkt, he was listed as CM, however if you look at the details of the match, AZ use double pivot and Reijnders is one of the double pivot.

  2. One month of scouting, nothing achieved. The return of Gattuso’s era. Why can’t we even concentrate on few talented meaningful individuals like Liverpool and city. In the end 80M will be no waste.
