Davide Bartesaghi’s rise at AC Milan has attracted the attention of some top clubs around Europe, according to a report.
Bartesaghi has been thrust into a starting role as the left wing-back in Massimiliano Allegri’s 3-5-2 system in recent weeks, because of a suspension for Pervis Estupinan that was then followed by an ankle injury.

Davide in demand
According to MilanLive, Arsenal are looking to continue their recent trend of signing players from Serie A, having acquired the defensive trio of Takehiro Tomiyasu, Jakub Kiwior and Riccardo Calafiori from the Italian top flight.
Journalist Vincenzo Matrone confirmed it: “Last year when he signed his contract extension, he was as happy as a child. I hope he remains a serious player. I know Arsenal are pursuing him and have some serious demands
“I hope he can become a full-back/wing-back for Milan for the next 20 years . In the unfortunate year of Milan Futuro, he was fortunate enough to play as a central defender, and this has led to his improving in marking.
“He has improved a lot in one-on-one situations; he plays a powerful game, and yesterday [against Pisa] they tried to get him to shoot.” Carlo Pellegatti has also spoken recently about the Gunners being keen on the Italy U21 international.
Barcelona are also among the other clubs pursuing Bartesaghi as per MilanLive’s report. In recent weeks, clubs have sent scouts to watch the teenager in action, and it might end up being a fight for Milan to keep their academy product.
He’s on contract till 2030, what exactly are we worried about?????
5 years too small?
It’s common to have inquiry from other club, but it’s uncommon for other club to present huge offer (80m up) for this player.
if anyone is paying 80m for him they are dumb
Consider him sold.
i consider you dumb, Milan 1 point off top and you are still salty.
Are you stup*d or something? What has our table position got to do with the fact these clowns are after capital gain money earned from our players. Especially pure capital gain since he’s club’s youth product.
club is doing well you still b*tch and moan like an Inter fan
You arent a Milan fan, you are a loser who cant feel happy when a club you claim to support is doing well, you NEED to find a reason to b*tch
whats wrong with you
I don’t see you comment after any match be it win, a lose or a draw. I do. And It’s always in supportive way. That’s what fans do. They follow games. All you do is b*tch around this blog when someone has something else to say other than sugarcoat everything around this club. Grow a pair you little wuss.
If anything it showed this management are willing to sell anyone who’ll bring in capital gain. It’s not like they ever issued a hands off warning now did they? Wimp.
He’s been impressing. I almost think that he should keep the starting job and Estupinan should be the backup. Barte can only get better.
The problem is, as a youth product he’s nothing but a massive capital gain. And we know how weak in the knees they get at that prospect…
This. 100% accurate.
They should bring 70ms
He looks a lot better compared to last season already. And he even took several corners, means that the team believe his crossing ability.
Milan IS cheap!
Could be his break out season – likely to make the WC squad and teams will be looking at him. But we don’t need to sell and why would he want to go if he’s playing first team football.
Agree with Vero, he should be number one, especially when Rabiot comes back, our left flank will be a force again..
