It is no secret that AC Milan are surveying the defender markets in the hope of finding a new central defender. However, they are not only in for one.
The recent news about Mario Gila’s seemingly imminent arrival is a strong positive to take into the summer mercato. However, he will not be the only addition. Instead, it appears the club want to invest heavily in the backline.
Fikayo Tomori could leave, due to his contractual situation, so this would potentially open the door for investment. Alternatively, Massimiliano Allegri could have six central defenders to rely on for next season.
Milan eyeing €50m wonderkid
Today, there have been several links to different defenders and it appears that another one has been added to the shortlist. Step forward, as Nicolo Schira reports, Ousmane Diomande.
The Ivorian defender is extremely well thought of, both for his current ability and his potential ceiling. At just 22, the youngster has attracted interest from Crystal Palace previously, but now, the giants are calling.
Several of the elite Premier League teams are monitoring him and considering his value is said to be around the €50 million mark, it makes sense why. However, this price point would also interest the Rossoneri.
Schira reports that the club have asked for information about his situation. A heavily ambitious attempt, but an exciting idea nevertheless.
50 millions ? Yan Diomande will cost this summer 90-100 millions. Mark my words. Big clubs from Premier League are after him and maybe Bayern Munchen. 50 millions…what are you smoking ? 😆😆
Jesus… sorry guys…I read Diomande and immediately I was thinking about Yan fron Leipzig 😆😆
Players from the Portuguese league are overpriced. We’re not blowing about 1/2 – 1/3 of the budget on a 22 year old defender.
Why you make joke with this club? Even but just even we want pay that money why he should come here? Italy league is disaster and players not improved especialy young players
