The AC Milan club directors will be looking to sign a new midfielder. As Giorgio Furlani claimed in his latest interview with DAZN (Read the full interview HERE): "Mercato? This year will be more targeted because the foundations are there... We weren't shy in the market last year, and we won't be in the upcoming one if necessary."
This season, Milan accepted tactical exposure to opponents in the name of an offensive phase that highlighted the extraordinary quality of the attackers in the squad. A calculated risk that should not manifest itself in the next season because the management is already evaluating several midfield profiles with more defensive characteristics compared to tijjani Reijnders and his teammates.
Youssouf Fofana, who is 25 years of age, is a midfielder of Monaco and the French national team, is certainly among the profiles favoured by the technical area director Geoffrey Moncada.
there are also alternatives to Fofana. In fact, and in recent days, Milan has been offered two midfielders leaving the Premier League for different reasons. They are 27-year-old Sofyan Amrabat, at Manchester United on loan but returning to Fiorentina, and 28-year-old Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg of Tottenham. However, at the moment, the Rossoneri do not seem keen on these two options for age and financial reasons.
Moncada has closely followed FC Basel this season and has noted the name of Portuguese 20-year-old midfielder Renato Veiga: he could become an option as well, as pointed out by the Italian website, Calciomercato.com.
