From Spain: Milan one of three possible destinations for 22-year-old Lille striker

By Oliver Fisher -

Lille striker Timothy Weah could look to try a new experience and change clubs in the summer with AC Milan among three teams interested, a report claims.

The 22-year-old is the son of the legendary former Milan striker George Weah and several teams that have been following him for a long time given his talent, with Fichajes reporting that the Rossoneri are among them.

Lille bet on him when he began to stand out at Paris Saint-Germain and they signed him for €10m, and he is now valued at €15m. Milan want a younger centre-forward to compliment Giroud and Ibrahimovic, so they could try and entice Weah Jr. to follow his father’s footsteps.

Meanwhile, Sevilla were already interested in Weah during the winter market and they see great potential in him with Monchi weighing up a move, but MLS side Inter Miami are another option for the United States striker as they would happily build the attack around him with a move for Luis Suarez now appearing unlikely.

Interestingly, Weah declared himself available for a transfer to Milan in a recent interview, strongly hinting that he is ready for the next step in his career.

  1. Enough with these rumors about every 20 year old. Every summer this club signs an 18-20 striker and then we never hear from them again. The clubs needs to bring someone in that is in the 24-26 age group and has a track record of scoring. In other words a striker that is in their prime, not one waiting to develop or one that is whose career is on the wane. Come on.

    1. They already did like your comment next season . Origi 26 years old striker. They sign as many young player not for use on field but for capital gain to sell it again. Example hauge. Young player that cannot get starting spot or not used by our coach become capital gain

  2. This would be a great move, but not for the ST spot. Weah would fit much better at RW. Plus, I think he’s pretty close to breaking out!

    Also: GO GET JESSE LINGARD!!!
