Longo: Milan want to sign three midfielders in addition to Loftus-Cheek

AC Milan are working hard to reinforce the squad ahead of next season and after a slow start, they are now getting close to their first signings. The midfield is the priority, as not just Ruben Loftus-Cheek will arrive.

The Englishman is one step away from leaving Chelsea for the Rossoneri, as has been confirmed by various sources this morning including Gianluca Di Marzio. The final fee should be around €21m including bonuses.

In addition to Loftus-Cheek, ad reported by Daniele Longo, Milan intend to sign another 2-3 midfielders this summer. This is more or less needed given the departure of Ssndro Tonali to Newcastle and the injury of Ismael Bennacer.

The likes of Yunus Musah and Tijjani Reijnders have both been linked with the Rossoneri and especially the latter appears likely to join. In short, it’s clear that the mercato has just begun and that there is some unfinished business.

    1. Yup. if we keep playing with double pivot then Amrabat makes more sense than most names that are being thrown around.

      1. Dreams. We aren’t playing 40M for Amrbrat, SMS, Frattesi or anyone else….Redbird won’t spend the $$ even tho we can afford them

        1. Nor should they. Spending 40M for Amrabat is def not my dream. He’s on last year of contract. Commisso is flexing, but he has weak negotioition position. 15-20M

  1. What could go wrong by signing 3 average to poor midfielders to all integrate into the most important part of the pitch at a stage of the season where you have to hit the ground running in the league and get out the CL group. It’s all so messed up. At least if you sign Frattesi and SMS you have players who know the league.

  2. Is it me or does the fee for RLC go up every time their is a new article.

    I am sure we started at €12m, then €15m, then €18m and now €21,5m….

  3. Why we are Chelseas trash bin? Why we want trash players like amrabat why we want still to do cheap deals. Why they saw the backlash and said ok we are not selling anyone else this seems that they don’t know about football business management of a football club. Why you don’t want exciting prospects and want Chelsea washed up players ?

  4. So the problem with this signing is the NON-EU slot allocation. RLC takes one spot, which leaves us with only one more, which presumably goes to Kamada (if he comes).

    Another rumor has been that Kamada’s delay has to do with him attempting to get a German Passport, so he doesn’t take up a slot.

    Pulisic, if he is a target, has a Croatian passport, so he’s OK. But Chuck-whoever would need a NON EU slot. So it all depends on Kamada’s status.
