Tuttosport: Why Milan believe Atalanta man could be the ideal Krunic replacement

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan could sell Rade Krunic and they seem to have found a potential replacement from within Serie A, according to a report.

According to Tuttosport (via MilanNews) this morning, the arrivals of Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Tijjani Reijnders and Yunus Musah helped reinforce the midfield department after the sale of Sandro Tonali, but the business might not be done.

Fenerbahçe are serious in their attempts to sign Krunic, even if for now they are not close to the €14-15m asking price and have instead offered around €5m. The high demands from the Rossoneri show the Bosnian is not for sale.

However, Fenerbahçe’s salary offer to the former Empoli player is sizeable and he is actually pushing to go and play in Turkey. If forced to sell, Milan could turn to Nicolas Dominguez of Bologna, but a new name has emerged: Marten De Roon.

The Dutchman is a different profile from those evaluated by Milan up to now, but unlike others he is affordable because he is 32 years of age and has a contract expiring in 2024.

Furthermore, we are talking about a ready player, with experience both in Italy and in Europe, so he would be a functional element for Stefano Pioli’s rotations in the middle of the field. We’ll see if this idea turns into something more concrete in the next few days.

    1. I hope this article is just filler, why would we go for DeRoon?, What place could he possibly have in our squad?

      Why would we help Atlanta mako their squad stronger with CDK and then help them get rid of their deadwood.

      Such a promising Mercator so far, get rid of CDk plus cash from Origi, Mesiass and Adli deals and get Dominguez or Kooperminers (don’t let Napoli get him, could be the difference between us winning the scudetto)

      Go for Beltrán and Estevee, get LB cover and let’s GO

      1. Instead of De Roon we should just hold on to Krunic till January… Florenzi is already a deadwood we can’t clear, it makes no sense adding more. This should be true not even for free 😭

  1. @Roses , you moron can’t see anything above your feet.
    The guy is cheaper? He is 32. There is no way you can gain any capital from him in the future.
    Dominguez is like 24 or 25, there is a definite chance to make profit in the future.

    With this brain, please don’t follow Milan

  2. He was good like four or five years ago. This however doesn’t fit our policy. This management doesn’t sign anyone that can’t be resold. Sportiello was an exception, but thar was a free transfer.
