CM: Milan to invest heavily in a new striker next summer – Ligue 1 forward a leading candidate

The AC Milan management already know that next summer is the one that must see them make an investment in a new centre-forward, with one name reportedly standing out at the moment.

Calciomercato.com report that the centre-forward department is already showing a few issues given that Olivier Giroud is working overtime and has just one more year left on his contract, the future of Zlatan Ibrahimovic is in doubt beyond the end of the current season and Divock Origi is battling numerous injury issues.

For this reason, the summer of 2023 will be the one in which Milan will invest heavily in a starting centre-forward, one who can instantly become a reliable goalscorer from a physical point of view but also in terms of age and output.

Among the names that Paolo Maldini and the management are continuing to observe above all is Jonathan David of Lille. The 22-year-old Canada international has four goals in seven Ligue 1 games this season after netting 15 in 38 last season and 13 in 37 in 2020-21.
