The Charles De Ketelaere signing required a big investment and now Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara will have to spend the remaining budget wisely, a report claims.
MilanNews reported that the transfer fee for De Ketelaere is €32m fixed plus €3m bonuses and as part of that Club Brugge will also receive 12.5% on the profit of a possible future resale.
According to Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews) this morning, the big outlay for De Ketelaere means that there is not much of a budget remaining for the two positions that need to be addressed, namely the centre-back and central midfielder roles.
The paper states that there is only around €8-9m of remaining budget available for transfer fees and that amount will be used by Maldini and Massara to reinforce the midfield, which means that they are only on the hunt for defenders who could arrive on an initial loan deal.
Lol…
If this 8-9m is true then it debunk the now dead media speculation for Sanches as the media claim the agreed fee was 15m.
So corriere Della serra and the rest of the Italian papers yesterday were convinced Milan was getting Renato Sanches for 12-15 mil after they signed CDK, but today they are saying Milan only has 8,9 mil to spend.
Yeah, OK
They only reveal the remaining budget after Sanches to P$G agreed. Coincidence? I think they previously hide it so they can keep the rumour alive.
Journalists making up numbers 😂
I think both 8-9m remaining and 15m for Sanches are both made up.
If you believe 15M was made up you also have to believe 8-9M is made up as well lol.
Give pobega a chance to play with tonali n bennancer as part of double pivot.
Hmm 50mill available, bought De Ketelaere 35mill hmm the remaining is 8-9 correct. And they give to Lille 10+mill the media said 12 I saw and 15 so what is these price . I believe we have at least 15 mill left .it’s kinda difficult to cover two positions. But I’ll say cover a position with a strong player like Evan Ndicka in CB that we need a CB. If we do that pobega adli krunic bennacer tonali gonna play much more and in CB we will be safe because kjaer aging
Jardey Schouten please!!
What is this crap bullshit . AC Milan get money from hauge + duarte sale 14 m euro. They have 50m euro budget + 14 m euro from sale player. Already used to buy CDK 32m euro + florenzi 3m euro + junior 4,5m euro + tommaso mancini 1,5m euro total 41m euro . 64-41 are 23m euro . That can still buy ndicka or other CB that max 20m euro without buying renato
This Milan management is very comical. Sanchez was there for us to take, we wasted that opportunity and spent everything we had on a tall Suso.
Now they are looking for midfeilders and defenders on loan. The scudetto champions indeed.
No, we don’t need to spend anymore except for players that have ACM Home-Grown status. Because we have 3 ACM HG (Gabbia, Calabria, Pobega) & 1 U21 that doesnt need registered (Lazetic).
Or 1 player need to go if we add 1 new, and that offload aren’t that 4 players : Gabbia, Calabria, Pobega, Lazetic.
But still there is 2 surplus requirements in Brahim Diaz & Tiemoue Bakayoko (Non HG), if Brescianini & Jungdal go out for loan.
