AC Milan have reached out to the entourage of Romelu Lukaku ahead of a potential summer attempt to sign him, according to a report.
Milan’s summer transfer window appears to have burst into life over the last 48 hours with the news that Sandro Tonali is on his way to Newcastle United for what would be a club record fee.
A rather sensational rumour emerged this morning from La Gazzetta dello Sport, who claimed that the Milan management are internally discussing launching an attempt to sign Lukaku from Chelsea.
They stated that Milan would have no problems paying the fee asked for a permanent deal by the Blues with the Tonali sale, which would be around €40m at present.
Alessandro Sugoni spoke on Sky this lunchtime to give an update on the situation, with his comments relayed by MilanNews.
“We understand that the player’s entourage has been warned of this intention. Then, now, [we’ll see] if it’s a provocation… It’s also part of the market game. We’ll see if this is a real intention, even if it seems quite contrary to the philosophy of the new Milan,” he said.
Get Mbappe instead. He a Milanista
You know what
You let me dream there for a few seconds: Leao-Mbappe-Chuku (from Villareal)
Daaaaaaamn
Is lukaku 34 yet?
thats the criteria for our striker
He won’t be free though so no chance of these American cheapskates signing him
It can be provocation only for Milan fans. American no-brainers.
Chelsea and milan have a good rapport. They are only helping them up the price for Inter or the saudis
this is top level trolling…. against Milan fans
How can SMS / Berardi be deemed too expensive and too old, then we go for overweight overpaid underperforming Lukaku?
This entire story doesn’t make sense. Am waiting to see if Moncada is really a transfer genius but there’s no way he’d be stupid enough to go for this.
What makes all this so painful is that Inter rejected the bids for Berella , and are in financial dire straits.
But we who have no debt could not resist selling!!
Makes you wonder???
