Repubblica: Milan eyeing €36m West Ham man as search for long-term striker continues

AC Milan remain admirers of Gianluca Scamacca who continues to have a fluctuating time at West Ham United, according to a report.

Milan were heavily linked with a move for Scamacca during the summer transfer window but he chose to join West Ham who invested a sizeable fee to sign him. So far he has three goals in 16 Premier League appearances, and is being used less and less by David Moyes in the scrap to avoid relegation.

According to Repubblica, Milan are looking for the striker of the future with Olivier Giroud and Zlatan Ibrahimovic no longer able to start every game given their age. The Rossoneri management will have to think about a possible long-term option and Scamacca is among the options.

The London club spent €36m last summer to sign him from Sassuolo but the feeling is that the 24-year-old could return to Serie A if there is not a positive upturn between now and the summer. He could become the beacon of the Rossoneri attack, taking the baton rom his idol Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
