Reports: Harder a leading candidate but Milan also have other Boniface alternatives

AC Milan could abandon their signing of Victor Boniface at the last second, due to a questionable medical, and they have several names on the list of alternatives. 

Boniface has completed his medical for the Rossoneri, which included additional tests earlier today to get to the bottom of his right knee. A final decision is expected to be made tomorrow but as there are concerns about the player’s condition, Milan are also monitoring alternatives.

According to Luca Bianchin, the Rossoneri could make a move for Conrad Harder of Sporting, either instead of Boniface or in addition to him. Contacts are ongoing, while the likes of Breel Embolo (Monaco) and Tolu Arokodare (Genk) are on the table as well.

Big names remain

As added by Pietro Mazzara, Milan are still keeping the talks with Rasmus Hojlund, Nicolas Jackson and Dusan Vlahovic alive as well. Napoli are pushing for the signing of the Dane, while Aston Villa have come forward for the Chelsea man. That leaves just the Serbian.

Contacts with various agents are ongoing as we speak, so it’s possible that another name could enter the frame as well. First things first, however, Milan will have to make a final decision on Boniface – expected to arrive after the game tonight or tomorrow.

It remains to be seen how the saga will end but it’s clear that the Rossoneri need a striker as soon as possible, with Serie A starting tonight.

  1. Should have stayed with Hojlund, now he will prob go to Napoli. Vlahovic is too expensive, and there arent really other good options. Luca also went to Napoli. I guess Hard is like the last option but that could also mean they can raise his price for us. Than again we can risk it with Boniface. Maybe try loan with option for him.

  2. IMO thsy should pay 20mil for Harder and leave him on loan at Sporting until January and get Boniface in. If it turns out that his condition isnt good the stop the loan and recall Harder in January.

  3. Jackson, not good enough. Vlahovic, too expensive. Hojlund, not good enough. Boniface, injury risk. Embolo, not good enough. Harder who? In terms of cost, age, record and experience, that leaves Arokodare as the best match for the indentikit. Not sure why they haven’t done more to explore that transfer. Perhaps they enquired and were told an astronomical sum that we’re not aware of.

    1. Hhhh arokodare is rubbish all of thse players you are calling are acceptable but not arokodare that tall boy is useless for me origi and arokodare i will take origi

  4. I think the objective about this operation its Milan still bought 2 strikers but with loan option to buy. Lowered the Boniface price because his knee condition. With limited time transfer window, Too risky if Milan direct to buy Boniface and then Conrad still unknown striker.

  5. Vlahovic would be a wise move in the last days of the window. Hope juve are desperate enough. But Vlahovic himself has nothing to lose. 12mil reasons to stay calm.
