AC Milan are facing a tough period right now. After a brutal 0-2 defeat against Inter in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, they suffered another loss, by the same result, against Spezia away from home. Now, the team must find their top form and get ready for another derby on Tuesday in an effort to try to give their best on the pitch and fight for their chances of survival in the European competition.
It is clear that the club needs some serious reinforcements, no matter how the season ends. That is why there is an eye already on the market opportunities.
According to what is reported by Calciomercato.com's journalist Daniele Longo, AC Milan are interested in the 26-year-old Japanese versatile attacking midfielder of Eintracht Frankfurt: Daichi Kamada. He is strongly appreciated by Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara due to his talents, but also because he can be available in the summer on a free transfer as his contract expires with the Bundesliga club at the end of the season.
As per the source, there is an agreement in principle for a contract worth 3 million euros net per season. AC Milan are leading the race for now. However, there is a fierce competition for the player who has 15 goals and 6 assists this season. In fact, Borussia Dortmund , Benfica , Newcastle and Atletico Madrid are all keen on him. Daichi Kamada, though, for his part, wants to don the Rossoneri shirt next season, says the report.
Now, though, AC Milan must think and evaluate the situation of Brahim Diaz who is on loan from Real Madrid and has a buy-option reportedly set at around 22 million euros. Then, a more pressing matter currently is the focus on the coming derby on Tuesday. All eyes are on the Derby della Madonnina; the return fixture of the Champions League's semi-final.
