Among the priorities for the coming mercato, there is the need to sign a backup for Theo Hernandez. The player is a guarantee for Stefano Pioli on the left-side of the pitch. But with the unlikely stay of Dalot who can play on both sides, Milan must restart the hunt for a fullback once again.
At one point, AC Milan was close to securing the signing of the american pacey right-back Antonee Robinson but he failed his medical exams due to the doctors discovering a heart problem. Milan were going to finalise the deal and sign him on loan with an option to buy.
Now, with qualification to the Champions League being secured, the club directors want to add quality player as alternative to the French fullback Theo. Among the profiles, there is the name of Junior Firpo, who was heavily linked with a move from Camp Nou to the San Siro before.
Matias Vina, 23, is a name familiar to the club managers as he has also been linked before. He plays for Palmeiras.
A new profile being linked with the club is European U-21 champion David Raum. This was reported by Calciomercato.com today.
