AC Milan are continuing to examine various profiles who could be signed next summer to fix problem areas and take the squad to the next level, a report claims.
According to Calciomercato.com, the search is mainly focused on a striker, specifically a new No.9 that can replace Zlatan Ibrahimovic who should retire at the end of the season, also given that Olivier Giroud is 36 and Divock Origi has not exactly had a brilliant start since his move.
One of the names on the list is Armando Broja but there are no particularly encouraging signals coming from London as Chelsea, for the time being, are not open to a negotiation for the Albania international who signed a contract renewal until 2028 after his return from a loan spell at Southampton.
The name of Noah Okafor remains near the top of the wish list too and he has decided to leave Red Bull Salzburg at the end of the season, with a current valuation of €30m.
However, in-depth evaluations will be needed tactical point of view because he is more of a second striker than a lone centre-forward. Ricky Massara and Paolo Maldini, along with the scouting department, are also watching closely in France and England as they look for the striker of the future.
Broja wants to stay, is expensive, isn’t a goal scorer and would be an Origi-type of flop. No thanks.
Okafor? Even “the slowest man alive” Kjaer kept him in the shadows. Not good enough.
Prodat Leaa i za te novce dovest Oršića ljevo i Mareza desno , Zijecha uzeti na posudbu a umjesto Diaza koji odlazi Majera ! NA LJETO AKO IBRA ODE naravno treba vrhunskog NAPADAČA !! Prodat Salemakersa,Rebića i Mesijasa oni su svoje otpuhali !!
Pass on both.
Both of them will cost north of €30 million, and neither one of them is a proven commodity.
If Leao is sold, that money should be used to beef up the whole squad in several departments.
Spending about half of what Milan probably will get in fee for Leao on an unproven forward isn’t the way to go.
I bet Moncada and his scouting team have a bunch of players on their lists, in the 10 to 20 mil range that can come and make immediate impact.
There is nothing special about Okafor, Broja, or Jonathan David, who was getting pushed on us by the media last season, as Okafor & Broja are pushed this year
Okafor is good man, he’s dangerous – good technique, fast and can be cold in one on one
I’m sure this is like the 20th time I’ve read this exact same thing on here ☹️
Why? why? why this Broja?? he’s so avg striker! no dribbling, no smart move, just uses his body
We need someone like Gabriel Jesus, that will be good in front of the goal but also good in build-up.
This is why David is much better fit (at least compared to this Broja)
