AC Milan technical area director , Paolo Maldini, is thinking of adding one more attacker to the squad of Stefano Pioli in view of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Olivier Giroud's respective ages and physical conditions.
The idea for the Rossoneri management is to find an ideal profile in the mercato who would lead the attack after Ibrahimovic. The heir to the Swede icon is truly needed at Milanello.
Watch out, however, to the insertion of Juventus who are equally in the market for a striker to fill the shoes of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Paolo Maldini faces competition from Juventus in race for Bundesliga striker
In fact, AC Milan's directors, Maldini included, have been charmed with the potential and growth that Patrik Schick has shown so far in the Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen. It seems, though, that the Bianconeri also want in in this race for the talented forward who is 25 years old.
The striker of the Czech Republic, formerly of Roma and Sampdoria scored many goals in the Bundesliga now. In fact, in this season campaign, he scored 6 goals and assisted 2 others in only 7 league fixtures. In the previous season, he scored 13 goals.
Schick's contract with the Bundesliga side runs until 2025. But, Juventus directors and AC Milan management, made of Frederic Massara and Paolo Maldini will compete and try to win the race in landing the striker who has grown so much.
Therefore, a return to the Serie A is not excluded for the player as he is highly sought now by the two Italian giants, reports Calciomercatonews.com.
