AC Milan are looking to add some firepower to the attacking phase in the system of head coach Stefano Pioli. Although we are still far from the summer transfer window, there are names being reportedly monitored by the club management who can add quality to the team.
AC Milan has added another name to their wish list: Marlon Gomes, a promising talent from Vasco. The 19-year-old attacking midfielder caught the attention of the Italian club during Brazil's title win in the South American U-20 Championship, prompting a meeting in Colombia to discuss a potential move, writes UOL Esporte.
Negotiations have yet to begin, but are expected to take place closer to the reopening of the international transfer window in Europe. Despite having a valid contract until 2024, Gomes has been approached to renew his deal. Vasco da Gama currently owns 70% of the player's economic rights, with the remaining 30% belonging to Nova Iguaçu.
