AC Milan did make a late attempt to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s reaction to the question last night basically confirmed it.
As Sky‘s Gianluca Di Marzio reports, the Rossoneri made an attempt for Osimhen when Napoli found themselves trying to offload the striker, and it was Ibrahimovic himself who took an active role in the negotiations.
Zlatan spoke to Sky before the first game of the Champions League campaign against Liverpool and after clarifying his role – or attempting to – Di Marzio questioned him on the subject of the mercato.
“It went exactly as we wanted, everything we looked for and was missing we got . The last one was Abraham, to provide an extra reinforcement in attack. It’s a shame for Jovic who is not in the Champions League list,” he said.
Ibra, however, preferred not to answer when asked about Osimhen, which is why he smiled but gave little away when Di Marzio questioned him about an attempt for the Nigerian: “I’ll keep quiet about this…”
As is known, the former Lille striker wanted to leave Napoli and they in turn struggled to find a club ready to buy him. Given the situation, Milan (with Ibrahimovic himself) tried to understand the feasibility of the operation to bring Osimhen to the Rossoneri before he agreed a deal with Galatasaray.
Lies
Massive ones at that
we need a good coach and minimum 3 midfielders.
Bennacer and RLC should also leave, their time in Milan is over!
Get Freudnep, Ricci, Lewis Ferguson!
Tuchel, Xavi, Sergio Conseicao, Sarri are the only coaches we should look at. Pioli wages are also gonna be not an issue due to him going to Saudi and maybe he helps us with Bennacer sale.
Forza milano! Do you all remember, De rossi defeated us in Europa cup and was giving 2 years contract, I told my friends,De rossi will be the first Coach to be sacked this season and it happened. 😀 Next to be Sacked apart from Fonesca will be Lazio. But,season still long. I prefer SArri, but,thinking of Age and Health issues. So I will prefer Tuchel or Terzic
Frendrup was actually the player with most tackles in Serie A last year and basically eclipsed number 2 with almost the double the amount of tackles in the season.
“- Zlatan, can you walk on the surface of the sun? – I’ll keep quiet about this”
Sartre wrote “Hell is other people.” Yeah and more specifically this management.
Man you love quoting Marxist pseudo intellectual bullsh*tters don’t you? 😂
Don’t make me laugh. Barely signed a striker for 13m and could only loan another.
Oh ya this is believable 🤡🤡🤡
Zlatan: Victor – we want you to come to Milan
Victor: great what you gonna pay me
Zlatan: 3M season same as Fofana!!
Victor: Turkey is calling and their Doner Kabobs are worth more than your offer. Click
The worst part is he says it with pride. Bottom line is you didn’t get a player like Oshimen or Rabiot or etc….WTF happened to you Zlatan? Fkn puppet. We need a serious Sporting Director with some fkn experience and not this current clown show led by a fkn banker.
This guy’s salary is almost more than Morata’s transfer fee. Those cheap Yanks wouldn’t ever pay up to bring him here.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they tested the waters as part of a “if we sell Theo” hypothetical.
Osimhen would’ve been immense obv – pity it didn’t happen.
Let’s stop this story Acmilan should sign tuchel at least he has champions league experience and he can do better but the problem of Fonseca is tomori and Loftus cheek this players are inexperienced not Good at all
Osimhen would rather go to a dump like turkey then play under clowns like Zlatan and Gerry!! Welcome to the Milan circus please mind the gap….
