AC Milan are first in the league table with two points between them and Inter as well as Napoli. However, Inter have one game missing. The big concern for the club managers and Stefano Pioli now is the lack of goals scored by the team in the recent matches. In fact, as you all are well aware, Milan dropped 4 precious points against Bologna and Torino due to two consecutive goalless draws.
As per Milan News, the club directors are keen on improving the overall quality of Stefano Pioli's squad for next season and that is why two names are being targeted already. Sven Botman and Divock Origi are very close to making the switch to the San Siro.
The Dutch defender has an agreement with AC Milan. But, the last details that are missing are with Lille. Once a deal is finalised with the Frencho outfit, a move will be officially a done deal.
Then, the same source also claims that only a few details are missing regarding the Belgian forward Divock Origi, as Milan Reports anticipated days ago.
Another player who is on the agenda of Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara is understood to be Marco Asensio. The Real Madrid winger is on his way out and Milan did have contacts with his agents, as explained. But there are two obstacles blocking the move for now. Firstly, Asensio's demands for the net salary are too high for the Rossoneri because he is asking for around 7 million euros per season. Secondly, the fierce competition coming from Premier League clubs is discouraging for AC Milan.
Finally, Domenico Berardi is also another player who is liked by the Rossoneri management. For Sassuolo, he is valued at 30 million euros. But, there may be room to manoeuvre a deal if the Neroverdi reduce their asking fee and accept "advantageous payment formulas". The intermediaries and agents are at work to see if a deal can be made between the two clubs.
