AC Milan technical director Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara who is the sporting director are always looking for affordable and possible solutions in the mercato session to reinforce the team for Stefano Pioli. In their radar, there is a new name, who was loosely linked with a move to the San Siro in the past.
According to what is reported by Sport1.de, the profile that is on the club's shortlist is PSV Eindhoven's Mario Gotze. His contract runs until June 2024. However, it seems possible that he may choose to leave in search of another experience elsewhere.
The German attacking midfielder has a clause that can be triggered just before July, for around 4-5 million euros. His agent, Volker Struth, has good connections in Italy and has recently held contacts with several interested clubs there. As per the same source, AC Milan would be one of the interested clubs.
Mario Gotze is 29 years old. The former Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund german star has contributed to his team's efforts this season with 12 goals and 11 assists after 52 appearances in total with 4150 minutes played overall.
