Mediaset: Milan reflecting on market strategy – a new midfielder may not arrive

A rather worrying report has emerged suggesting that AC Milan might choose to not sign a new central midfielder having missed out on other targets.

According to SportMediaset (via MilanNews), some reflections are underway in the offices of Casa Milan currently given that the Rossoneri have lost Renato Sanches to Paris Saint-Germain, meaning a new strategy and a new negotiation must begin.

Pape Matar Sarr of Spurs is currently the number one target for Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara, but the feeling is that the signing of a new midfielder might not be so urgent given that Ismael Bennacer and Sandro Tonali are backed up by Tommaso Pobega, Rade Krunic and Tiemoue Bakayoko.

Bakayoko could yet leave and in this case a midfielder would surely arrive, but if he were to remain then Maldini and Massara would reflect on whether a new signing is better and if instead they should bet on who is already in the squad.
