AC Milan could have new owners for next season as Investcorp are in advanced talks with Elliott Management over a takeover. The Bahrain-based fund, should they take over, want to make a statement signing this summer.
Investcorp could be announced as the new owners at the end of the season and although they will follow the path of Elliott, one statement signing could be made. Riyad Mahrez appears to be the dream of Investcorp.
According to Tuttosport (via MilanNews), the Algerian has one year left on his contract with Man City and he earns just over €6m. A high salary, no doubt, but not far from what Milan could offer for such a top player.
Investcorp, as said, don’t intend to go on a spending spree this summer but would like to give the Rossoneri fans a gift for what hopefully will be a successful tenure. Mahrez, therefore, has been labelled as the dream of the club.
