Among the various signings that AC Milan wants to complete this summer transfer window, there is also that of a new midfielder with defensive characteristics who can help restore balance to the Rossoneri team, an aspect that was a real limitation for Pioli's team last season.
In this regard, the name most liked by the higher-ups at Casa Milan is Youssouf Fofana, a defensive midfielder from Monaco and the France national team.
Today, Corriere dello Sport published the following headline:
"Fofana for Fonseca. Reijnders will be relieved of defensive duties."
The French player is a profile appreciated by the Portuguese coach, Fonseca, who has had the opportunity to face him in the last two years in Ligue 1: The Rossoneri coach is pushing to have the French international right after the end of the Euros.
We will have to wait until that date, but the player has already indicated, with only one year left on his contract, that he will leave the club. Monaco's latest demand is 25 million euros.
With the Monaco player covering him, Tijjani Reijnders would be relieved of defensive duties.
