In the last transfer window, AC Milan strengthened their defense by bringing Matteo Gabbia back from loan at Villarreal six months ahead of schedule and by signing Filippo Terracciano from Hellas Verona for a fee around 4.5 million euros.
Further reinforcements were needed. But it seems that the club management decided to postpone any search for additional players for the summer transfer window.
According to reports from TuttoMercatoWeb, Milan had, however, conducted an inquiry to secure a backup for Theo Hernández at the left-back position during the January transfer window.
Between late December 2023 and early January 2024, Milan reportedly explored the possibility of signing Patrick Dorgu. Born in 2004, the Danish left-back is a Lecce player who has been doing well in Serie A.
The Rossoneri were in search of a left-back to support Theo, nurturing both present and future prospects. However, shortly after the inquiry, Pantaleo Corvino, a director at Lecce, provided a clear response: 'no'.
Perhaps, AC Milan may consider revisiting the pursuit of the young player from Roberto D'Aversa's team in the upcoming summer transfer window, as told by Pianeta Milan.
In this season so far, Patrick Dorgu has made 21 appearances between Serie A and Coppa Italia. The 19-year-old talent who has Nigerian roots, managed to score one goal and provided one assist. According to Transfermarkt, his value should be around 7 million euros.
