Sky: Milan summer another blow after Botman – Renato Sanches set for PSG

AC Milan now seem resigned to missing out on Renato Sanches too as he looks more likely to join Paris Saint-Germain, a report claims.

Luca Marchetti told Sky (via MilanNews) that the report launched by Le Parisien regarding the negotiation between Renato Sanches and PSG is in fact true, because the Portuguese midfielder at this point prefers to go to Paris rather than Milan.

For Milan this means having to reshape what were the priorities for the role of midfielder, but they ‘will not lose heart’. Just as they did when they missed out on Sven Botman they will now have to react accordingly in pursuit of a midfielder too.

The return of Tommaso Pobega and the arrival of Yacine Adli leave mean that on a numerical level there is perhaps not the same urgency like there is to sign a centre-back, but clearly the Rossoneri will want to increase the quality even more in the middle of the field.

Meanwhile, Gianluca Di Marzio (via MilanEye) confirms that Sanches is getting closer to PSG. Luis Campos’ presence as their new sporting director is decisive as he knows Sanches from their time at Lille.
