AC Milan have pushed ahead in talks over Marc Pubill of Almeria, but now they are reflecting on whether he is the right name.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) this morning, Pubill is not the only name on the wish list, but at the moment he seems the easiest to land. There were new contacts on Wednesday, but the Rossoneri face strong competition from Wolverhampton Wanderers so cannot wait long.

Pubill: The right name?
The sporting director Igli Tare and coach Massimiliano Allegri planned to add at least one new full-back to the squad before the departure for Singapore, the first stop on the tour of Asia and Australia, scheduled for Saturday evening.
Time is extremely tight, so it won’t be easy to bring him on board with the rest of the squad, especially since Milan have yet to decide whether or not to pursue Pubill. Cost-wise, it would be a sustainable deal at €10-15m, while his wages are well within the parameters too.
So, from a financial standpoint, everything is fine. At the moment, the issue is perhaps more technical: Milan are still considering whether to speed up the deal to beat Wolves to the signing of the Spain U21 international. It seems, based on a Sky report, that Guela Doue of Strasbourg is preferred.
These two make Moncada look compotent.
why pay extra 10M to get a Serie A proven RB – DODO?!
Calcurlani all about the saving dough…
I get what you’re saying, but Dodo lacks soooo much defensively…
Well… Defensively lacking Dodo is still 1000x better than what we now have.
ffs, the names that are circulating… These clowns are looking at alternative’s alternatives. More deadwood to pile.
As long as Stuart Little stays in power with scumbag Scaroni, confusion will never leave Casa Milan.
How someone who has ZERO connection to football can run AC Milan is beyond my logic
Signing me would be ‘within the financial parameters’ but I still wouldn’t recommend it 😆
Call me stupid but wouldn’t it be better to reflect whether a player is suitable for the club before wasting a month on negotiating and neglecting other candidates mean while??? Just asking for a friend. 🙂
*meanwhile
This site has gotten really good at repackaging no-news LOL!!! That’s all this article should have said:
There are no news on Pubil yet. Instead we got 5 paragraphs about nothing 🙂
This forum is easily riled up over a speculative story that is going to be repeated a zillion times. 90% of the players Milan are ‘linked’ to are just media page fillers.
don’t get me wrong I want a new RB (and LB ST CM).. but why is he getting considered for the starting role over Saelemaekers when he was good for Roma and this guy just played in the Spanish 2nd division?
p.s. I know he was RWB last season
