MN: CSKA Moscow star Vlasic drifting away as a target for Milan – the reasons

AC Milan are looking for a new attacking midfielder but are still working under budgetary constraints which makes their pursuit difficult.

MilanNews provides an update on Milan’s hunt for Hakan Calhanoglu’s replacement, reporting that in addition to technical skills it will be important to think about the costs of a potential operation and of course the salary that the player would receive.

That is why the pursuit of Nikola Vlasic is not proving to be easy. CSKA Moscow are proving to a tough nut to crack and will not approve the formula of a loan with option to buy, while Milan do not want to invest €25m to sign the player outright.

The Croatia international is moving further and further away as a target due to this stand-off between the Rossoneri management and the Russian club, despite having been pushing for some time to come to Milan.
