AC Milan managers, Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara have been taking their time regarding the playmaker role. It is true that the club renewed Brahim Diaz' loan for two more seasons, but the feeling is that another quality player should arrive to cover the void left by Hakan Calhanoglu.
According to what is reported in today's edition of the Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, Stefano Pioli wants an attacking midfielder who can play well between the lines behind the striker in the 4-2-3-1 system.
Many names are linked, but the newspaper suggests that Milan are now back to thinking Josip Ilicic of Atalanta. The 33-year-old Slovenian does not enjoy a first team spot anymore at Atalanta, but he still has qualities and good skills that could contribute well to the Rossoneri team.
