It appears AC Milan have made a move towards a young midfielder from Montenegro this week, potentially with a view of him joining the Futuro.
This window, it appears Milan will have to work on rations when it comes to first team signings. Niclas Fullkrug’s arrival set the tone for the month, and reports that followed suggested that there was little to nothing available.

The reasoning is rather simple; without Europe, Gerry Cardinale and RedBird are not willing to spend big in January, especially after the mess of last year. So, Massimiliano Allegri will have to wait another few months for large investment.
A new addition?
Despite these rules for the first team, the Milan Futuro project may be able to spend in this window, especially with it being an investment for the future.
Vijesti, the Montenegrin outlet, reports that one of the countries starlets could be on their way to San Siro shortly. Lazar Savovic, who only turned 18 this week, rejected a new deal with Buducnost in November, due to the interest from abroad.
Whether that was due to the Rossoneri is not mentioned, but the Diavolo are certainly leading talks currently. In fact, they have reportedly paid the release clause in his contract, which is worth €300k. So, he could be heading to Italy shortly.
Just in from milannews
Niclas Fullkrug has broken a toe and will be sidelined for some time. His recovery time is still being assessed, but it will be assessed by the AC Milan medical staff in the coming hours. What’s certain is that the German striker will be out of action against Como on Thursday, and it’s unlikely he’ll be available for the match at San Siro against Lecce either.
Welcome the next Lazetic!
He’s a loan. So little risk. but such a wrong comparisson. Lazetic was 18, totally unproven, 0 experience.
Fullkrug was decent at BVB and had a horrible time in the EPL.
i see what you meant. LOL my bad. maybe. did we make money on Lazetic?
