Laudisa: From Mahrez and Berardi to Haller and Nunez – the latest on Milan’s summer plans

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan are expected to have a big summer transfer market in which they will strengthen several key areas of the squad, it is claimed.

Carlo Laudisa – a journalist for La Gazzetta dello Sport – spoke on Carlo Pellegatti’s YouTube channel (via SempreMilan.it) and he took stock of the upcoming window.

He confirmed that Divock Origi should join on a free transfer because in recent days the talks with the player’s entourage Belgian were productive. There is an agreement for a three-year deal with an option for the fourth year at approximately €4m net per season, while the striker will benefit from the growth decree.

Riyad Mahrez of Manchester City has been talked about as a target, but Laudisa believes that Paolo Maldini will more realistically meet Sassuolo’s CEO Carnevali again to talk about both Berardi and Scamacca.

The new ownership will give him more resources to invest in the market, so they will sign players that know Serie A well or turn to other targets such as Ajax’s Sebastien Haller who costs €45m or the even more expensive Darwin Nunez of Benfica.

“We just need a little patience, because undoubtedly Maldini will have to work out the budget with the new owner. Will 300 million be spent? We will have to see how long it will take. The new Milan certainly want to win and want to finance an important transfer campaign,” he concluded.

  1. It would be great to get a big transfer budget, but id like to keep the principles we currently have, not waste it on bad buys.

  2. What a joke of the year if they trully invest on Berardi,scamacca or other overated player from small club’ serie A

    1. I agree recca Berardi has done absolutely 0 on the big stage. Has never played euro tournaments for his club and lost his starting spot to a 21 year old Chiesa for Italy. Berardi is a hard pass for me. Scammaca I wouldn’t mind if we were unable to get a bigger name as he is younger and full of promise.

  3. Nunez for ST.
    Mahrez + berardi/Antony for RW. (tho I would prefer Antony)
    Nkuku for CAM
    Tchouameni for CM/CDM
    Botman for CB

    I wish we could get them all. It will be a UCL contender team if we manage to improve our attacking strategy from relying on individual brilliance of players in every match.

    The only weakness of Pioli is, he couldn’t improve our attack in two seasons. I don’t see it changing in future. Solely Relying on Individual skills is ALWAYS a bad idea even tho it’s often necessary.

    1. Its not his fault everything has to run through the left flank as Calabria isn’t offensive and saele and messias are trash. Not only that but we have no proper #10 and pensioners at ST. I’ve heard alot of trash talk about leao lately and that is unfair. Every team knows now to focus on him plus he’s played too much cause rebuc was hurt and in horrible form when he came back. This team will be unstoppable if the right reinforcements arrive this summer
