During the press conference introducing Youssouf Fofana, when Milan's Zlatan Ibrahimović said that the transfer window closed when he decided, he wasn’t joking, and it seems to be playing out that way.
Another reinforcement may be coming soon for Milan ...
The Rossoneri club is indeed working to provide Paulo Fonseca with the fifth reinforcement of this summer, the 19-year-old Ajax player Silvano Vos, who, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, would be a perfectly aligned investment with the club's strategy: identifying talents across Europe and enhancing their qualities at the San Siro.
After bringing all the needed players to Milanello, namely Strahinja Pavlović, Emerson Royal, Youssouf Fofana, and Alvaro Morata, Milan is now focusing on seizing opportunities in the transfer market during these last 9 days, with Silvano Vos fitting into this category.
The Rossoneri management is highly interested in the young Oranje midfielder, who, despite his age, already has several appearances with Ajax’s first team. In Amsterdam, he is spoken of highly, but the relationship between the parties has soured due to how Ajax treated Vos last season, with the player just waiting for more playing time. This has led Ajax to seriously consider selling him, given their delicate financial situation, with Milan not needing to be told twice.
Milan and Ajax in negotiations for Silvano Vos:
Initially, the gap was significant, but it has gradually narrowed to the point where all parties are confident of reaching an agreement soon. Crucial to Milan’s favor is the work of Vos' current agent, Zahavi, who has personally stepped in with the aim of bringing his client to Milan. The impression is that the deal is almost done, likely closing at around 6 million euros.
