Igli Tare has remained in England to work on further transfer business, and one of the operations includes the sale of Yunus Musah.
Upon his arrival, Tare knew he would not only have to make targeted acquisitions to improve the squad, but also relieve the burden of some surplus players. Yesterday, for example, the loan of Filippo Terracciano to Cremonese was finalised.

Milan stand firm over Musah
As Tuttosport (via MilanNews) reports, the sporting director working to complete other exits. One concerns Musah, who is being sought by both Nottingham Forest and Napoli. This is also why Tare stayed in England for an extra day yesterday.
Milan’s ideas regarding the American midfielder are clear: he will only leave with an offer of €30m in total. If it doesn’t arrive, Allegri wouldn’t have a problem keeping the player in the squad.
Conversely, solutions are being sought for Samuel Chukwueze, who is considered not a part of the plans. The Yacine Adli and Ismael Bennacer cases also need to be resolved, particularly the latter given his salary.
Alfredo Pedulla meanwhile confirms that Musah isn’t unsellable, but the Rossoneri need at least €30m – including bonuses, but easily achievable – to give the green light. Napoli enquired in the last 72 hours, but for now, they’ve decided not to follow through.
We’ll see if they change their minds, but Nottingham Forest – who are in talks but are currently finalising other deals – have made an offer that for now isn’t close to the figure Milan would like, so things remain ‘in a standstill phase’.
please sell all 4… Igli Tare is already cooking on a next level, these 4 will just seal the deal…
20 miljoner högst för Musah
He’s seen by everyone as a wild card and he’ll never develope that way. Allegri would probably use him between CM and RM/RWB depending on the formation.
Let’s hope we get rid of all 4 players so we can complete the squad
He will never be sold, musah is a hard working player and gives everything on the pitch, the one who should have been sold since is Rafael Leao this season he will be the first to disapoint the coach, Mark my word’s.
“musah is a hard working player and gives everything on the pitch”
Unfortunately, his everything generally amounts to nothing.
back in the banter era, if you recall, Poli was the same. Very hardworking but no end product. I believe Musah has youth on his side and if coaches use him in a specific position, he’ll get the role. But he’s being used in so many roles, he has master none.
Clearly, you no nothing about the game. He runs like a headless chicken. Always out of position, terrible football IQ and holds the ball way too long. Not to mention, his end-product is terrible. We already have Saladmaker who gives 110% and improves every year. You cannot say the same about this dude.
Yes man. Nobody knows but you. Allegri, Conte, all the scouts are people that have no clue about football but you, of course, do.
Right. We should sell Rafael Leao. (Insert rolling eyes here). Have you even seen how well he is playing under Allegri? Creating opportunities, scoring, assisting and even efficiently helping the defense for the first time in his career? You want to sell our other double-figures goals/assists generator (other than Pulisic) when Allegri who certainly knows WAY more than you about football, said he is making of Rafa the center of his project, with Rafa consequently thriving under the head coach’s trust, and blooming? This is looking like the season when Rafa will do as well as in the Scudetto season when he was the league’s officially chosen as the MVP.
He is not objective. He thinks his subjective opinion on the quality of a player is somehow definite. And he just randomly hates players so they need to be sold. Next year someone will have a haircut he doesn’t like so he’ll be a “monkey” and for sale.
We’re asking waaaaaayyyyyyyy too much for a player we paid 20M€ for, who isn’t valued 20M€ and definetely not worth what we’re demanding.
Just take 25M€ and let him be.
94 you are still kid because 94 probably is year when you born. So you dont understand thing yet. Just look and learn. 30m + bonuses and only at that way he can go
If they sell Musah, Milan will be left with potentially 3 midfield players. RLC is prone to injuries, we saw that last year, while we cannot expect Modrić to play every game. So Milan stays with Ricci, Fofana and Jashari. This is a bit risky if we know that the midfield is the most important department of a team. In case of selling Musah, does Milan have a replacement ready?
That’s actually a good point.
But I guess we can still find a good substitute defensive midfielder for less than 25M€.
I think they do which is why the won’t sell unless a specific threshold is past
Yes, he is probably staying. Obvious from pre season games. Allegri used him a lot.
But Bennacer earns x 3 from Musah. This is the transfer that needs to be done. Musah can be sold nect summer for 25-30M if necessary.
Maybe Newcastle can buy him for 50 million lol.
But seriously just take the 25 million.
Only 30m + bonuses what i tell before few days.
get a good price from Nottingham Forest. And we won’t have to deal with his “potential” in Italy.
