GdS: Milan working under the radar on €65m forward – inclusion of counterparts sought

AC Milan have got Roma’s Nicolo Zaniolo firmly in their sights and they are willing to make a sizeable offer for him, according to a report.

It is clear that the management need to improve the attack this summer given that the playmaker and the right wing roles are obvious weaknesses at present, and La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews) are reporting that Zaniolo is a top target for Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara.

They want to carry out the negotiation as under wraps as possible without any party leaking information that could compromise the deal, so diplomacy is at work, but there is a lot to do because the Giallorossi are currently asking for €65m to sell the Italian.

The Rossoneri do not want to go beyond €40m, which is an offer also including a counterpart (€25m cash plus a player such as Alexis Saelemaekers or Ante Rebic), so now the capital club must open their stance.
