CM: Four additions already lined up – why Milan’s market does not need to be like Inter’s

By Oliver Fisher -

While it is always better to get business done sooner rather than later, AC Milan can take comfort from the fact they can have patience while conducting their market.

Calciomercato.com write that Milan have clear ideas about the transfer market even though the start of the preseason is scheduled for July 4. Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are not in a hurry and they have no intentions of being pressured into bad deals, while Inter chief Beppe Marotta admitted earlier in the week that he wants their market to be almost done by the end of June.

Milan do not have the immediate need to raise money and replace any starters, while it must be remembered that four players will arrive to strengthen the squad. The first two are loan returns in Yacine Adli from Bordeaux and Tommaso Pobega from Torino, while new additions Divock Origi (should undergo medical examinations next week) and Renato Sanches from Lille should also arrive barring surprises.

Of course there are still players needed in defence and attack, with Lille’s Sven Botman remaining a first choice for the former  while Noa Lang and Charles De Ketelaere of Club Brugge top the wish list for the attacking department.

The report mentions to ‘watch out for possible surprises’ because the main aim of Maldini and Massara is to give Pioli a better team than last season, full of options and alternatives, and quality depth.

  1. Obafemi of swansea city is putting in some great performances for Ireland in the nations league…could be a nice addition to play as striker

    1. Just like that, I was laughed at my comment that Marotta is a genius bc Maldini can do “wonders” with less money. There are reports that Skriniar goes to Paris are something but I’m 100% sure they will still have a competitive team with Dybala and maybe Bremer. And the guy who commented on me said that Inter would be nothing without that Marotta guy but that’s bs, there are a lot more good directors nowadays in football, just look at that Compos guy who is now at Paris. Also they (Inter) have other guys with the board who are much younger than Marotta and I think do more than him bc he’s older. We need to be fast bc everything was “close” like Berardi but now Juve also wants him I think, I don’t want us to spend 40M on Zaniolo for example. Why we didn’t bought Dybala, he would be a perfect absolutely perfect cam

  2. All of you. That like Inter & Peppe Marrota so much, go & support Inter. We don’t need you nor we will miss you…

  3. If you guys learn about Maldini, look at our Januari Transfer early this year, even tough we need CB and ST, Maldini keep patient and dont do rush buy with blow up price, he knows what he is doing, so..everybody need to calm the f down and trust the maestro Maldini and Massara.

  4. If maldini figures out that ousmane dembele is perfect for our RW and will give us another leao on the Rw thEN he has bettered marotta in 2years…dembele with consistent time and good environment will be next Salah (mediocre till Liverpool trustED)…..his injuries is way behind him and oh my God with both speed on our LW and RW and an all rounder like Origi, we might be next surprice in champion league
