The AC Milan manager's hunt for the next talent to reinforce Pioli's team has led them to a promising profile.
We are talking about Mateo Retegui. He is a young Argentine forward. He is a right-footed starlet, aged 23. He has been causing a stir at Tigre on loan, but his parent club is Boca Juniors and his contract with them is until December 2024. AC Milan have had their eye on Retegui for several months now, and it seems the time is ripe to make a move. However, they're not the only ones interested. Serie A outfit Udinese have also thrown their hat in the ring and initiated contacts with the Argentine giants, writes Calciomercato.com
Retegui's towering presence, standing at 186 centimeters, has made him a formidable force in the air, while his eye for goal has also caught the attention of many. His 19 goals in the 2022 Argentine league for Tigre were nothing short of spectacular, and he's already off to a flying start in the 2023 Liga Professional with four goals in four games.
What's more, Retegui's technical prowess and work ethic make him an all-around solid player. His playing style and skill set make him an attractive option for Stefano Pioli's offensive setup, ideas and tactics. In conclusion, Retegui is a "panzer" on the field, always ready to fight for his team's success, as told by the source.
The fact that Retegui's contract expires in 2024 could make him an appealing prospect for any club with their sights set on a promising young talent. The AC Milan club management has Retegui on their radar for their future plans. However, the competition for his signature is starting to heat up slowly.
