Mediaset: Milan’s chances of signing Sassuolo midfielder extremely low

The chances of AC Milan signing Sassuolo midfielder Davide Frattesi are extremely low given the price and their need to sell, a report claims. 

As has been reported by Italian broadcaster Sport Mediaset (via Milan News), Milan are highly unlikely to be lining up with Frattesi in their midfield when the new campaign gets underway next week.

There are two primary reasons for this. One is that Milan are not looking to spend any more than €15 million on their new midfielder. Sassuolo CEO Giovanni Carnevali has been standing firm by his valuation of €35 million.

That then feeds into the second problem which is that the Neroverdi have got no incentive to lower their price. They have sold Gianluca Scamacca to West Ham United for a big fee and they look set to sell Giacomo Raspadori too.

Therefore they do not need to settle for a lower bid for Frattesi when they can sell him next summer.
