Sky journalist Peppe Di Stefano has given an interesting update on AC Milan’s search for a centre-forward, with Rasmus Hojlund’s name put forward.
Di Stefano spoke during a segment on Sky and he discussed the many rumours related to the striker role that Milan are expected to make a big investment in during the summer, with his comments relayed on Twitter.
“The policy seems clear to me: Milan will sign a player around the €20m, €25m, €30m range. They do not want to, cannot and it is not in the club’s policy to spend €90m like [Juventus did with] Vlahovic. They want a player with top potential that can become even stronger, like Leao. I’ll give a name: Hojlund,” he said.
Hojlund has actually been linked with Milan over the last few weeks, as has virtually every young striker around Europe. The 20-year-old Dane has an impressive 15 goals and six assists in 40 appearances across all competitions for Atalanta.
He is young, physical and has an eye for goal, qualities which might make Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara reach out to their Lombardy neighbours at the end of the season.
