AC Milan are weighing up a potential move for Adama Traore after the winger left Wolverhampton Wanderers following the expiry of his contract.
According to MilanNews, the management want to reinforce the right side with Christian Pulisic and Samuel Chukwueze of Chelsea and Villarreal the names towards the top of the wish list at the moment.
However, a great low-cost opportunity could be Traoré. Milan and Roma are keen on the 27-year-old who would give his priority to the Rossoneri because they will play in the Champions League.
Despite his powerful physical build, Traoré is a very quick player and skilled in dribbling. He is certainly not a goalscorer, but he could be a functional profile to raise the level of Milan’s game, perhaps as an alternative.
He made 40 total appearances for Wolves last season in which he amassed three goals and two assists. Italy could certainly be an interesting destination for a player with his characteristics, given that direct wingers – much like Rafael Leao – can thrive.
He is right footed like saladmaker so scoring is n’t his strength. Mesias with lefty can score better.
He only needs to cross the ball, there should be a striker in there to score 30 goals per season.
Thats not what pioli want, cant you understand he want his winger to penetrate, thats why he want a lefty for RW and vice versa, the crossing job is for the wing back
He is an electric player and pivotal causing menace upfront which was lacking in the final third of last season. He dribbling skills and crosses will be vital come next season. Jnr Messias and sale can go. Traore/ chukwueze and pulisic fits. Musah yunus, fofana/bennacer and Tj /frattesi also
Why are we focusing on such players???? What is the point of Moncada’s scouting if we cannot find good young players to cover for the likes of Calabria and Giroud, players who could one day take over as regulars on the pitch. I really do not understand this transfer strategy (that is if this report is true). The only two transfers which seem to make sense are Kamada and Reijnders. The rest are all BS.
This is the only time in the past 5 years where there is a possibility in which we could land SMS …. Instead we are focusing on the likes of Musa? Why arent they going all in on SMS? It is ridiculous how this transfer market is going.
We have become a club that sells a kid with so much potential like Kerkez to get Balo Toure instead (and thats Moncada btw). We let an opportunity to sign Dybala go and get CDK instead from a league far inferior to Seria A. We let go of the only player who should be untouchable, a symbol of a skilled Italian player (Tonali) and get an Englishman who has been a substitute for most of his career. In fact, I would sell any player on this team if the right offer came except for Tonali. Look at Inter with Barella. They accepted offers to sell Lukaku and Hakimi but rejected every concrete offer that came in for Barella. Cuz they know what it means to have someone who understands Inter’s culture. You need to protect Italian talent rather than let them go (especially if they are loyal as F and especially since the number of Italian players on the team is dwindling away). We will definitely have registration issues in next season’s champions league AGAIN if we keep this BS up. Why not get an Italian sub for Theo (like Augello for example), a few more on the wing (a sub for Leao? Last season we technically had a squad of only 13-14 players that actually had an effect. The rest were rubbish. We have overworked Bennacer, Krunic, Theo, Leao, Giroud and Tonali losing Bennacer to injury in the process. What would happen if we lost Giroud to injury? Will Origi be the main man? Come on !
Nice Comment & selling of Toneli will be a great mistake in the future bcuz he really understand the league.
Agreed completely my man. This whole Redbird Revolution is so frustrating.
It’s like he’s cut-and-paste a strategy from one sport and decided to blindly apply it to another without making the subtle changes required for a different market / fanbase/ culture/ player trade system
Spot on, that’s why i dont blame old fans who started to leave the club. It has been a mess and nothing like the original Milan with the exception of the name.
Any fan who leaves was never a fan.
Truth
Not truth at all. It’s just a cliche saying. Just a couple of days you had a guy here who sad he was a fan for 30years and he left. If that guy wasn’t a fan i don’t know who is. Look at the comments on the Italian pages as well. If you take the soul from the club and spit in the face of the fans and the club legends who made the club what it is, then don’t be suppriced if they start leaving. Is it even the same club if it has no conection with the history and the traditions? As i said i understand why so many are leaving, and its not about couple of bad results on the pitch.
The results bothered me but I kept watching, I’ve been a fan for 16 years! Travelled to Italy several times to support Milan.
But as you said..
Cardinale is spitting in our face.
Selling Tonali, sacking Maldini, not investing money, even thinking about selling Daniele Maldini..
Sorry but all of this is too much. I’ve never been a glory hunter. There are more successful teams in the past decade but I’ve always been loyal until now. Milan is dead.
I can’t support this American feeder club.
Fans are fans. Some fans are long standing fans others are transient. It is what it is. You can also be attached to the club for many years but choose not to support the direction at any given time. This is what happened in banter era,.look at the support the vs now..would.you say the extra 20000 people now are not fans?.
I get where youre comjng from but you’re wrong Only sheep blindly support. That’s not being a fan. That’s having low iq
Go support Juve then. We won’t miss you.
TRAITOR and Co.
I make bold to say it again, ANY FAN WHO LEFT, WAS NEVER A TRUE FAN, I don’t care how many years they claim to have supported the club.
Oh, comon, ain’t gonna have this conversation with you guys, seriously.
How do you even try to justify this.
I mean, I bleed only RED and BLACK, and I’m not Italian, so I qualify, they only bond we share while you’re in Italy and I in USA, is our love for the club. You cannot be more Rossoneri than me, I promise you.
I’m sorry, my love for Ac Milan, is eternal, I have already eaten the forbidden fruit, I have drank the water, now I bleed RED and BLACK, and there’s no going back.
I’m too in love with this Cult that I can’t change ship, it’s late already.
JOHN THE BAPTIST cheer for another and neglect my first love?
God forbid.
Like I like to say.
#MilanTillTheFockingCasket!
And ain’t joking.
See? And that’s the thing. You are probably blind or stupid (maybe even both) .
Milan is dead.
This isn’t the traditional Milan that has values. If you wanna support this club, then go on but you were never and won’t be a bigger fan than I was just for supporting this nonsense.
Actually…if you support someone who literally KICKED OUT our biggest club legend, then I don’t even know if I can call you a fan at all
Yeah Traitor.
I’m stupid.
I’m dead.
But I’m Milan.
Before Cardinale, I was.
During Cardinale, I am.
Beyond Cardinale, I will.
I just stupidly love this focking club, and I’m brain dead to love another.
No name or ancestral affiliation supercedes my love for Milan, even if my favs no more, I keep rocking.
Good luck buddy.
Whatever I say to ya may not make any sense after all, I can’t teach you how to be a fan either.
A fallen soldier, gimme your tag, the battle isn’t for the weakling.
If you were a Milan you dont just leave, it means you were never a fan. What are you Redbird compatriot? Gobbuy a new Jersey and never come back here
I would be Milan fan even if they get relegated to Serie D
“I would be Milan fan even if they get relegated to Serie D”, unless you are milan/italian native, you are a blantan liar.. what of a fan that cannot see his team in action?.. who will travel week in week out to another country just to see his team in action..
How could you say im not ac milan fan.. for 20 years i wake 2-4 am in the morning just to see my milan in action.. every year buying jersey & item at milan official store, subscibe any channel involving milan.. subscibe to milan channel, youtube membership.. getting emotional damage for whole week when we lose.. belittle by all my friends who are all EPL fans..
Who are you to judge?..
No mate, it’s not lie, it’s love.
I can’t make out if you guys are for real or if you’re just full of sh*t – like those demtards who said they’d leave the country if trump was elected and then never did.
I agree with a lot of what you said except for Tonali being untiuchable, SMS to ever step into this vlub and the whole Italian thing. One ahould earn the jersey and patches based on mertocracy not because he is Italian. I mean if you want an example Maldini is not Italian, look at his grandpas history and it becomes clear. Seriea A is faling because of that Italian protectionism, cimpetition breeds champions and Milan is beyond Italy, it superseeds its Italian roots, just like Real, Barca and Man U are.
This is not true. Juventus was successful with Italians. Inter was in the final with several good Italians and they are about to buy another great Italian – Frattesi
There are several talented Italians like Baldanzi or Parisi
Tonali was perfect. He had good passes, helped out the defence, had decent speed and had good attacking support. His free kicks were on spot. Such a player and he was loyal to Milan! Someone like this has to be untouchable.
What we got instead as a replacement is Ruben Lodtus Cheek. An injury prone player who acted mostly as a substitute and would be suited for a team like Leeds United..
Bravo Moncada, bravo Furlani, BRAVISIMO CARDINALE!
Couldn’t agree more, mate! So disappointed with Tonali sale and Maldini sacking… Didn’t even try to “use” Oaolo differently. The guy represents something you can not buy: the sense of belonging to a group, a family. This is how Milan used to win (and lose), like a family. I am very worried about our future…
Exactly. We were already bearing fruit from the project Maldini and Massara imposed with Elliott and then this egoistic self-centered cowboy comes and shatters it with a snap of his fingers. And it is utmost devastating for me.
I understand that there may be financial constraints and the likes of SMS might still not be possible to land. But at least try for god’s sake. We desperately have been in need of a leader in midfield for the past 3 to 5 years. We had Zlatan in attack (Giroud followed), we have Kjaer in defense and Maignan in goal. We need an instant leader in midfield – especially after selling the only player who could have been next real symbol of Milan.
If we want a striker with similar killer instincts to Giroud then we should try getting Icardi (on loan). He is the only one on the market who could keep the goals coming (as much as it hurts me saying this but this is the truth) and could give Giroud a breather.
We have also been in dire need of a Right Winger ever since Suso left. It will be the biggest mistake giving the last Non-EU seat to Chukweaze rather than Kamada. Yes Chuk is good but his final touch requires a lot of work and we can find other good players on the right flank.
Selling Toneli is a big disappointed.
The media praise him as an extremely fast and strong player, but I don’t understand his function as a right winger if he doesn’t score goals and assists his teammates! What is that great effort worth if there are no results. We need numbers on that right side of the field!
Because they can’t get any one better, that’s why… This whole transfer market has been a joke. If they kept Tonali and added Kamada for free + Rejndeers for 20 mil, they would have had a great mid for cheap. Now they need to invest in compleatly rebuilding the mid and also to buy a RW… and there is no way that the cheap ownership of this club would spend that much money. So they mes it up and now are only looking to get what is avaliable.
Agree 100%. I read here that Real, City, Bayern, etc. sell their players to make money, but they already have a replacement when they do so. We just sold our best midfielder, a future bandiera, who reportedly didn’t want to leave, which creates a new hole in an already struggling area. All the bankers at the helm saw was the money and it’s like they don’t have a strategy in mind. Scary af they’re playing the Wall Street game here.
If you were a Milan you dont just leave, it means you were never a fan. What are you Redbird compatriot? Gobbuy a new Jersey and never come back here
I would be Milan fan even if they get relegated to Serie D
Finally, i ha e been barking here for q week. This guy is unstopable and he is free. He will tear defences apart and get you the ball in the box all the time. Winger doesnt have to always score goals, he needs totear the defence and get the ball in the box.
He is better then Saelamaker and Messias. Je was descriebed as a ferrari with an erratic driver in there, his last season in Wolvs Nuno made him to a proper player. Pioli will shaoe him, and when he does he will make the rest of the team appear like they are walking that how fast he is.
Get him now, he is freee
Sell Messias and pay this guys salary
Win win win
I guess we will never learn from origi saga and still keep relying on freebies…..loans and free transfer these are sort of transaction which will come to haunt us in near future when player refuse to leave and we are stuck with over burdened wage bill…this guy is 27 he flopped at barca I guess and why we are going for him…it seems like we have confused transfer strategy…first we don’t have money then we do sell our star player then end up being more confused and panic buying..instead of buying these sort of players it’s better to stick with garbage we got already
So he’s a sub that doesn’t score hmm who else is exactly like that … Messias origi rebic 👍
Highest succesful dribbles completed in all of Europe, top 10 speed in PL, yet, 2 goals and 3 assists in 40 games, tells you this player is absolutely detrimental to your team. Imagine loosing chances to send Leao free on the opposite flank or have a sitter with an easy pass to Giroud never come cuz sir here wants to run pass people and dribble then end up doing nothing?
Hard pass on him, we don’t need him.
Chrisp, habe you watched him with Wolvs when Nuno was managing yhe team properly? What earned him to go back to Barca where he came to Wolves from?
Analysis you made without watching his games are frankly useless. He vreates chances, tons of them. Now you ha e someine in yhe right that can actually run havoc on oposituon sides.
In contrary, Pioli who i believe will get the best out of him would turn Adama into a beast. Even Jurgen and Pep used to say he is unstoppable
Dude he is free
Get Icardi as well, better then Morata and those other options
We will not spend more then 80M, what do you expect
Dont worry guys , he is just 3rd choice in RW list behind samuel chukwu & pulisic. Dont waste your energy to fight in this meaningless rumour
All three are sh*t
Wolves is a small team and most teams play high up against them so spaces are created for this guy to run at. I don’t think there will be any such spaces for him to run at for Milan in Serie a. Probably why he didn’t strive as much for Barca. He should go to Roma. They sit back and counter attack. Bet after a good season in Rome people will say ‘you see Milan made a big mistake not signing Adama for free’ lol. Problem is that he’s not ideal for Milan’s supposedly style of play, regardless his speed and power! Milan need attackers with passing skills creativity and vision.
Stats say he’s no upgrade over Saele or Messias.
Traore has no final ball. He’s a head down, run merchant. As for the directors, most of the blame goes on Pioli because he green lights the targets. It’s Pioli who pushed for RLC because he played well against us in the UCL. He could easily say he wants more Italians, but he doesn’t.
Milan need good signing Frattesi is a good player get him milan need a good scorer morata will be useful milan must look at player that will play for with the hearts not big money if we get 4 player hope that the management gets the good ones.we must continue to support milan give good ideas that will make all off us happy,milan forever I will never go for another team,milan until the end,love you milan.
