As reiterated several times, even yesterday during the press conference introducing Paulo Fonseca, Milan's priority in the market right now is the central forward. The Rossoneri need to close this deal as soon as possible and then they will also focus on other profiles in different areas of the field. Today's La Gazzetta dello Sport sheds light on the current situation regarding other movements besides Álvaro Morata: in this context, the name Yusuf Yazici resurfaces, a Turkish attacking midfielder-striker hybrid who has been linked to Milan in the past and is well known to Fonseca.
The newspaper wrote this morning: "Yazici opportunity. The coach's favorite is available for free."
The versatile forward and attacking midfielder has been released from Lille: for Fonseca, he was a reference point.
With Lille, and with Milan's new coach, it was a year and a half: especially in the last season, Yazici played a lot. For the Turkish player, 42 appearances with 12 goals and 4 assists overall, significant numbers. The 27-year-old player has parted ways with the French club and could represent a free transfer opportunity.
