The January transfer window is three months and while there are many games between now and then, AC Milan already have a pretty good idea of what is needed. According to a report, they will be looking to reinforce two positions. 

After a tough start to the season, the Rossoneri have recovered and could win their fourth consecutive game in the league tomorrow. Despite the improvements made, though, it’s clear that a few positions could still need reinforcing.

According to Nico Schira, Milan will aim to sign a midfielder and a back-up striker in January. Luka Jovic hasn’t impressed at the start of this season and appears keen to leave as well, so it’s possible that the Rossoneri could sign a younger player for the role.

As for the midfield, Youssouf Fofana is currently the only ‘defensive’ midfielder and he could use some rest every now and then. Johnny Cardoso of Real Betis has been linked with the club before and they are reportedly keeping tabs on him still.

The striker Santiago Gimenez admitted that Milan tried to sign him in the summer and even if he’s still open to a move, he would not accept the role as third striker.

  1. Top teams generally don’t sign anyone in January because a) top players don’t generally move in January and b) top teams have a well planned out transfer policy that sees them get their business done early in the summer before pre-season.

    Admittedly we did sign Kjaer and Ibra in our most successful transfer window since 03.

    If we were to sign players of a similar ilk then I’m all for it. Otherwise let’s just give this latest incarnation of AC Milan a chance to bed down.

    1. Van Dijk and many top talented players have moved in January. It’s never the wrong time – players with winning mentality should want to move to the top teams.

  2. Bernabe or Frendrup if they want rotation options.. Cardoso will take 100 years to gel and lets be honest, he’s cr@p. Wrose than Musah kinda cr*p.
    As for ST, we’re fine. Get Ben Yedder on free if they want ST. He’d be all 2 happy to be a sub at his age
