AC Milan have new competition in the race to sign Nicolò Zaniolo from Roma as a Premier League side have a big bid ready, a report claims.
According to Fabrizio Romano and Di Marzio, Bournemouth have made an official bid to sign Zaniolo which is worth €30m as a guaranteed fee plus add-ons and sell-on clause, which is not far from what Roma’s reported asking price is.
Romano adds that Milan have already discussed personal terms with Zaniolo’s entourage in the last few days and that the player’s position/decision will be crucial in the outcome.
Meanwhile, an update from Di Marzio confirms that the English club have reached an agreement with Roma over the fee, and now it comes down to the player’s decision.
It has been reported by virtually every major source over the past few days that the Rossoneri management have been in talks over signing the 23-year-old Italy international but it is not known if an official bid has been made and if so what the formula and figures involved are.
What a f*cking great times!
F*cking bournemouth is richer than AC Milan.
Italian Association has to do something about that
It’s a shame that Milan is competing with relegation threatened team for the signature of a player, same rubbish happened with cdk… Milan should stop insulting there self and make the purchase
people like you probably think spending 80m on Fofana and 70m on Cucurella is very cool, if you want reckless spending go support Chelsea or Barca
You’re so right, it’s much better for the team with the second most ucls to buy Belgian second division players for 700k
@Shaggy, No, that’s not business bro.
Roma is just being greedy to ask for that much for an injury player that also has a year left on his contract. It would be foolish for Milan to pay such an exorbitant amount. The player’s decision would be the final not the club. Let’s be calm
Indeed. You can either pay too little, right amount or too much. Roma is asking for waaaaay too much and Milan should not cave in.
Doing exactly what Milan, Inter and Juve have always done in the past.
There is still hope for Milan. Come on Bournemouth, get it done!!!
It really says something when we are competing in the market with Bournemouth and they have the upper hand!
Premier League money talks, the TV revenue money the EPL generates is way more than what any other league on the planet generates.
It’s not a out being a relegation team, each Premier League clubs gets £79m due to equal share of TV rights, Norwich earned £98m for finish 20th, Serie A doesn’t come close to that.
If we don’t have money, after Scudetto and new owner. Hard to imagine what happen to milan if we don’t win anything this year.
exactly.. i’ve been saying many time this simple logic,
+ new owner loan 600m to Elliot + new stadium, it’s mean we wont be able to compete in market even with Burnmouth at least till next 5 seasons
It’s not about Bournemouth out pricing Milan, it’s about what the player is really worth, and what the player really wants, Milan is the ideal location for him, he will die a slow death in Bournemouth…

He only has 18 months contract, so 20million is a very fair price for him, paying over for him is not the way..
A player is “worth” what someone is prepared to pay for him. Milan can try bargaining and bartering until the cows come home – and by doing that, they will continue to lose out on players they’re targeting.
“A player is “worth” what someone is prepared to pay for him.”
LOL!!!! That’s what Juventus thought as well and look where it got them!! 😀 😀 😀
And you’re wrong btw. 🙂
Absolutely. Not just a player, but anything you wanna buy is worth whatever amount someone is willing to pay for it. That’s how free market works
So you’re saying “overpriced” or “overvalued” are terms that should exists? Tell that to stock markets, would you? 😀 😀 😀
*shouldn’t
yeah we should pay 50m for Zaniolo so you can be happy that Milan spent money
He isn’t going to accept going to that team. So Roma is just wasting time. I still think he joins Milan over the weekend. He needs to make it clear it’s Milan or he stays and ruins their locker room!
they’re just trying to get more cash from Milan for him.. doubt maldini is that naive. But if the dude would rather go there than Milan, nothing lost
There is no chance in hell that zaniolo would join bournemouth, Its even well known that zaniolo wants to stay in italy so if roma want to gain a decent fee for him they better sell him to us,
What happened? They didn’t want our ferocious Messias?

I could see Zaniolo being around a 10 goal contributor while missing ten games a year at Milan. In the PL where his physical fitness will be tested in every match, Although he would be a definite upgrade at RW, there are better options if Milan are going to have to pay 30 million euros for a winger
