In the summer transfer window, the AC Milan club managers will be trying to sign a new striker. Olivier Giroud, who is 37 years old, is serving his last year in his contract and it seems that he may be looking for a new adventure, specifically in the USA with Los Angeles FC. However, it should be noted that signing a centre-back is also an important target to improve the quality of the squad, especially with Simon Kjaer's likely exit in the summer.
Among the profiles considered by the Rossoneri management, there is also that of the experienced Spanish defender Mario Hermoso, who should leave Atletico Madrid on a free transfer in the summer, as reported by Calciomercato.com.
The Real Madrid Castilla graduate and ex Espanyol player has been at Atlético Madrid since 2019. He turns 29 next June. So far this season, he has been able to make 36 appearances with 3188 minutes played across all competitions (La Liga, Copa del Rey, Supercopa, and Champions League). He also has two goals and one assist registered to his name.
Hermoso is a left-footed centre-back who stands at 184 centimetres tall. He can also play as a left-back if needed. The AC Milan target, according to Transfermarkt, is valued at 25 million euros.
