AC Milan appear to be serious in their attempts to sign Lazar Samardzic as talks were held yesterday over the margins to make a deal happen, a journalist has claimed.
Matteo Moretto of Relevo has provided an update on the ‘Milan-Samardzic theme’. He claims that there were ‘direct talks between the parties’ to study the conditions of the deal yesterday.
Not only that, but he adds that the Rossoneri management have started concrete dialogue with the father of the Udinese midfielder, who is also his agent and therefore looks after his interests.
This is long-standing interest from Milan, because it was widely reported that they were keen on signing the 22-year-old back when he was with Hertha BSC and had barely broken into the first team, but he ended up joining RB Leipzig and then Udinese.
A source close to the negotiation confirmed to SempreMilan during the 2023 recent summer window that there was ‘interest from Milan’ and that there had been ‘some talks’, but nothing ever materialised and a move to Inter also collapsed.
Now, however, it seems that the time has come to move on for the Serbia international, who racked up eight goal contributions in 34 Serie A games last season for the Friulians.
