To strengthen the attack, AC Milan have thought of Olivier Giroud that can be the ideal alternative for Zlatan Ibrahimovic in Stefano Pioli's lineup and formation system.
The Rossoneri managers signed Mario Mandzukic in the winter transfer window, but unfortunately that did not work out well for anyone because the experienced Croatian had his period at Milan filled with physical problems and injuries. Before joining Milan, he was a free agent who did not play football for many months and his last team before then was Al Duhail (the same team who has offered Calhanoglu a rich contract).
Now, after the farewell of mandzukic, Milan are, once again, looking for another experienced striker that should help the team and contribute well. Olivier Giroud, who just won the Champions League some days ago with Chelsea seems set to leave the Blues on a free. The Rossoneri are working to bring him to the San Siro.
According to what is reported today by Tuttosport, Maldini and Massara are working on the fees relating to bonuses and agents commissions which would take some time. However, there is a positive feeling about the completion of the deal soon.
