Almost all of the deals being done by AC Milan now are being done as loans, with obligations to buy next summer.
With Samuele Chukwueze, the story of him and Milan is done. The Nigerian arrived with great promise and excitement, but he has failed to deliver much since joining two summers ago. This is probably due to Christian Pulisic’s impact.

However, when given chances, the winger has often failed to exceed expectations, so earning a starting role has been tough. His game never really adapted to Serie A, so an exit has seemed likely for a while now.
Another one to go
In the past month, Fulham have taken a great interest in things, and a move has become possible. Originally, a permanent deal was considered, but a loan move seems to have been favoured.
Nevertheless, the issue appears to have been solved. According to Nicolo Schira, the winger is ‘one step away’ from Craven Cottage, where he will join Fulham on loan with a €25 million obligation inserted into the deal.
Though like the moves for Yunus Musah and Alex Jimenez, these obligations are conditional on certain things being met. With a contract until 2030 already agreed, it is imagined that these conditions will not be difficult.
He will come lurking back to Casa Milan come next summer…
I am sad as a Nigeria but it is best decision for everyone. He has not been able to fulfil his potential and with a switch to 3-5-2 now, his chances are much less. Good luck Samuel. Sometimes in life, all we needed is change.
Not against this move but this Mercato has been terrible. We got good money from selling our unwanted players yet we’ve spent silly money on our signings. Jimenez should never been sold, kid is 20 years old with huge potential but as usual the yanks saw $$ sign. Musah I don’t rate so 30m is good deal but getting rabiot on wrong side of 30 is horrible. Tare isn’t calling the shots it’s furlani who is not a footballer just a hedge fund guy without understanding AC milan. Tare & Allegri are not in sync and Ibra is nowhere to be seen either. The leadership is a mess.
That can only be a good thing for Milan that Ibra is finally out of the picture. Ibra was responsible for a lot of the circus like bizare decisions that led to last season’s disaster
Loan is stupid thing but what espect from Tare and managment
This is easily the worst mercato since 12/13..just unbelievable
Bro how…. What more do you want
Perfect example is when we signed Nkunku, Allegri said he is a great player but I’m not sure where to play him. This is a dead giveaway they are not signing the players he wants. Tare today did the same when he said he wants Gimenez to leave but Allegri said he wants to keep him. Who is in charge? What is the actual process behind player selection? It’s nonexistent.
And when did Allegri know where his striker would play? Especially the striker who doesn’t play with his back to the goal? Never. If they brought him defensive players, he would know very well how to cram them all into his cowardly 5-4-1 or 5-5-0 formations.
At least then he’ll have the players HE wants and not something given to him to say go work with that, whether defensive or not . That’s the whole point!
Yes, that’s what he asked for Matri, because it was suitable for his system. A coach who does not know how to adapt to the team he has, but has to look for players for his system, not the team’s, is a failed story in advance. But enjoy yourself with your beloved Max 😉
Mediocre owner
And bad coach
Things are gonna be rough…
How can you let go Jovic and Camarda and bring in injury prone like Nkunku and let Gimenez go for Dovbyk?what of Leao and Dov get injured? You will put Fofana on the attack? Hahhaha honestly am disappointed with this mercato
