Lorenzo Lucca is firmly on AC Milan’s list of targets for the summer transfer window, but they face competition from Inter.
At the moment, when we talk about the Milan mercato, it is mostly about exits. Tijjani Reijnders underwent medical tests with Manchester City over the weekend, while Mike Maignan seems to be Chelsea-bound. However, some additions are being worked on too, naturally.
Lucca: A concrete target
As MilanNews reports, the signing of a new striker to play alongside Santiago Gimenez is high on the list. Tammy Abraham, Luka Jovic and Francesco Camarda seem destined to leave, and all for different reasons.
The Englishman will return to Roma after the season on loan, the Serbian will not renew his contract expiring on June 30, while the young Italian striker should go on out on loan to play with more continuity. So, the Rossoneri need another centre-forward.
In recent weeks, several names have been linked to Milan, including Aleksandar Mitrovic at Al-Hilal, Dusan Vlahovic at Juventus and Mateo Retegui at Atalanta. However, it is Lucca who is being ‘monitored with great attention’.
He was a target in the winter window, but Milan decided to close the deal for Gimenez. Now his profile is back in fashion for Milan, who however will have to be careful of competition from Inter. His asking price: €25m.
Is this the player who robbed a teammate of a penalty kick? So the embarrassment from Fiorentina last season would be repeated.
Yes, not sure why is Milan even looking at him. Obviously not a team player.
Milan only interest but never materialize…
Would be my ideal striker without a doubt, considering many factors he would be more realistic and a very efficient striker for our system of play.
It’s amazing that Inter is looking at another striker, with all the talent they have at the position, plus the Esposito brothers coming up.
Wil just need a striker that can play team work like Giroud, Ibrahimovic,inzaghi.
I think they should sign lucca. What I’ve noticed is that when the team play a lot of times they cross into the box, there’s no target man sticker like Giroud who can head the ball in , that’s why I think Lucca is perfect. I also think Milan should look at Jean Phillipe Mateta. He’s quick, physical, can finish from anywhere, scores goals, everything Gimenez isn’t. Also better than these other targets like vlahovic and mitrovic who scores goals cause he plays in the beer league. And wouldn’t be super expensive, probably around €20 million instead of vlohavic
