AC Milan are expected to submit a new offer for Bologna winger Riccardo Orsolini after having a first bid rejected, a report claims.
Samuel Chukwueze was the man who came off the bench and bailed Milan out of what looked like being a game with more points dropped, scoring a 95th-minute winner against Parma in a 3-2 thriller.
Despite this, Sky (via MilanNews) are reporting that Milan are not giving up on Orsolini. After the initial approach of the last few days, with the first official offer, the Rossoneri directors are preparing a new offer for the Bologna captain.
The first bid was €18m in cash plus Noah Okafor as a counterpart and it was rejected. Geoffrey Moncada and the management could raise the cash sum to €20m, then include the loan of Chukwueze in addition to Okafor on a permanent deal.
Yesterday evening against Empoli, Orsolini was not on the pitch due to an injury he suffered in the last round of the Champions League (a first degree lesion to the right femoral biceps) which will force him to remain out of action for at least a month.
Thus, there would be question marks if Milan decided to let two wingers go (plus money) in exchange for one who cannot immediately contribute, depleting the depth in the process.
Orsolini for both the players and 20m is not worth it. Especially that he’s injury prone
That’s a really dumb offer if true. He’s good, but not worth a 40Mil package.
He’s not injury prone. He’s only had one lengthy injury in years.
Haha 45M for Orsolini and to loan Chuku, that why we dont have Italian player‘s, cause they F‘ us over nur sell them for 15M to Inter and Juve merda.
Italian team don’t always want to sell players to Milan, but sell to other clubs even cheaper.
If they want to buy from us, they will be begging like beggars
Second offer was without Okafor, only Chuk on loan plus 20mil.
Problem is Orsolini is not flamboyant winger.
Wtf are we doing. There are smarter / more economical deals to be done.
We penny pinch for so many players then for someone like Orsolini (he’s good but not thaaaaat good, plus at 28 isn’t an appreciating asset) suddenly we’re breaking the bank with essentially €40mn+ ?
Absolutely bizarre, they’ve lost the plot
This guy over 2-3 years will worth noting 😆😆
Clown clueless management on panic mode or worse…some financial scheme
If this is true, then I have no doubt that this management works for competitors, not for Milan. First CDK, then Kalulu and now if this is true, then everyone should resign collectively. The fans should riot and create chaos. If they want an Italian, let them bring Ricci. Shame on them.
Maybe I would make an offer like that for a talent like Nico Paz. That kid is truly special. Orsolini is good but nowhere near 20 millions + Okafor + Chuk good
Lol there is no way Orsolini would cost that much. He is valed at 16mil so we can prob get him for around 18. What Milan prob wants is a swap for one of Okafor or Chuk who are more or less valued the same.
This management are the most dumb management offering two players plus cash for Orsolini..
Bring in Olmo, Coman , Dembele instead
Thats crazy. Swap without 20m maybe ok deal… maybe…
De la spéculation, tout à fait erronée.
First of all, I love Orsolini and we should have brought Orsolini (or Berardi) in the place of Chuk a season ago when he had the chance. And now, it seems too much. Okafor had an ‘option to buy’ value for 30ish mil on the previous move (which I also laughed at tbh). And now we want to give him (plus substantial money) for a player that has around 18 mil MV?

This, surely, is a joke.
I mean anyone’s better than Chukwueze but Orsolini is not even that good, I mean “Milan” good.
They get rid of all Italians in the team, only sign average foreign players and when they finally target an Italian player its this guy? 27 years old and average and expensive to boot?!
Then again, this does make sense from this management.
We are NOT a serious club
If this true then just show how fking clueless Moncada is without Maldini and Masara.
Insane to offer 45 mil for Orsolini and lend them Chuky.
Not only is he not worth close to 45 mil (30 at most), that will strengthen Bologna enough to seriously challange for the no 4th spot. Imagine if Okafor and Chuckwueze blossom in Bologna like Saelemaekers did and lead them to 4th and we miss CL?
If this management loses Chukwueze and Okafor for any deal, then they are making the same dumb move they made with CDK, and Kalulu.
Rubbish management.
Plus useless RLC, Abraham and Morata are still in the club?
Rubbish management.
