Tuttosport: Milan evaluating Salernitana star – €25m clause payable in instalments

Boulaye Dia has ended up on AC Milan’s list of attacking targets and he has an attractive release clause in his deal, a report claims.

According to Tuttosport (via PianetaMilan) confirms that Dia is among the profiles being looked at by the Milan management as they seek out support for Olivier Giroud, who worked overtime last season.

The 26-year-old netted 16 goals in Serie A last season for a Salernitana side that hardly scored in abundance, and they have now used their €12.5m option to buy him permanently from Villarreal after the loan expired.

He signed a three-year contract with the Granata – therefore expiring in June 2026 – but it has a €25m release clause that can be paid in two instalments. However, it is only active before 20 July.

Therefore, Milan will have to make their assessments on Dia quickly if they decide they want to try and sign him, but Stefano Pioli is an admirer of his characteristics.
