The feeling is that Milan's strategy is to wait until the final part of the transfer market to get Monaco's approval at lower figures for Youssouf Fofana. As the Rossoneri club CEO Giorgio Furlani has indicated several times, the Rossoneri are working on the market with confidence, knowing there are still 25 days available to finalize the deal positively. "No rush, there's time", said the Milan CEO.
The backup plan, however, is Emmanuel Konè, who was on Milan's radar a few years ago when Maldini and Massara were in management. The midfielder, then at Toulouse, chose to move to Borussia Mönchengladbach to continue his development. Now that the opportunity with Milan has arisen, he didn't hesitate to give his approval. However, Konè has different characteristics from Fofana. But this team would benefit more from the French defensive midfielder from Monaco.
