In addition to the striker, AC Milan will look to strengthen other areas of the field during this summer transfer window, which will officially open in 9 days, on July 1. Among the roles requested by the new coach Paulo Fonseca is also a reinforcement for the midfield, specifically a defensive midfielder. The managers of the Rossoneri have drawn up a list, and according to Corriere dello Sport, the top three names are Youssouf Fofana, Mats Wieffer, and also Pierre-Emile Højbjerg.
Mats Wieffer is a 24-year-old Dutch midfielder from Feyenoord. If he hadn't had a physical problem at the end of the season, he would also be among Koeman's call-ups for Euro 2024 next to AC Milan's Tijjani Reijnders.
According to today's report in the same newspaper, there have been new contacts between Milan and the player's agents in the last few hours to assess the feasibility of the operation.
The Rossoneri club hopes that the player's entourage can help lower the transfer fee, currently valued by the Dutch club between 25 and 30 million euros.
