AC Milan are ready for a new era with Paulo Fonseca in charge of the first team. There is a lot of work to do, but there won't be a true revolution in the transfer market. There will be, instead, targeted additions, perhaps 4 or 5 players who can help close the gap with Serie A champions and bitter rivals, Inter.
One of the positions that should be reinforced, besides the striker and central defender, is the defensive midfielder's. In this sense, a favourite of Moncada in that role is Youssouf Fofana of Monaco who is valued at 25 million euros.
Born in 1999, Fofana will also be a starter for Deschamps' France, one of the favorites to win the European Championship, points out Calciostyle.it. This tournament will serve as an additional showcase for him, already attracting interest from top clubs like Arsenal, PSG, and Atletico Madrid, and drawing attention from around the world.
From the French national team's training camp at Clairefontaine, some of Youssouf Fofana's words leave all scenarios open in what might be the most important summer of his career yet:
"I still have one year on my contract. I have spoken about my future with the management, it’s no secret. We have an agreement to take this next step. If it doesn't happen, I will stay at Monaco for the rest of the season. I hope everyone wins this summer, but at the moment, I'm not thinking about it. PSG? Yes, it's a great French club, a great European club even though they haven't won the Champions League yet. Do I see myself there? Not necessarily, I'm not obsessed. If it happens, why not, but if it doesn't, I won't have nightmares about it."
