AC Milan are continuing to look into opportunities to strengthen the squad available to Daniele Bonera with Milan Futuro, and have set their sights on Alphadjo Cissè.
According to what is being reported by Matteo Moretto of Relevo, Milan and Atalanta are both keen on signing Cissè, the 17-year-old attacking midfielder who currently plays for Hellas Verona and is regarded as a very bright talent.
The Rossoneri are trying to advance in negotiations with the sporting director of Verona Sean Sogliano, who is personally managing things. As mentioned, he would be a signing for the youth sector, most likely the Futuro or Primavera.
With 20 goals and three assists in 56 appearances over the last two seasons in the Primavera, Cissè racked up excellent numbers playing as a left winger and second striker with Sammarco’s Verona, attracting several top-tier Serie A teams.
Paolo Zanetti decided to assess him in preseason with the senior Verona squad and he is showing all his abilities having scored goals against Rovereto and against Virtus Verona. He has been likened by some to Lamine Yamal.
The teenager has been with Verona since 2020 when he was 12, and he made his senior debut for the club during a 3–1 win over Ascoli in the Coppa Italia last season. He made his Serie A debut in a 2-2 draw against Inter back in May 2024.
