Meanwhile, the management thinks of the market, too...
AC Milan club directors are showing support to the new coach now. But at the same time, there are considerations regarding the squad list and potential reinforcements for January.
Certainly, the squad is not yet complete, writes Calciomercato.it. If the opportunity presents itself, Milan will definitely be there, for January's mercato incoming transfers, but also the future, with an eye on the next talents to be added to the team.
In particular, a name could emerge thanks to Zlatan Ibrahimovic's involvement: an emerging talent in football, now being targeted by Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
AC Milan's transfer market news update, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic's involved
The name being linked to Milan, as per Calciomercato.it is Ruben Van Bommel, a 20-year-old striker, son of Mark van Bommel, the former Rossoneri midfielder and coach who had also been linked with Milan over the summer before the arrival of Paulo Fonseca.
The young left-winger in question plays for AZ Alkmaar and scored a brace in the Europa League last Wednesday, September 25, against Swedish outfit 'If Elfsborg'.
As per the source, he has caught the attention of Manchester United as well as Bayern Munich besides AC Milan. The Rossoneri club, however, could leverage Zlatan Ibrahimovic's friendship with Mark Van Bommel to pursuade his son to join the club.
For now, it's just a suggestion, but it could become a concrete negotiation in the coming weeks.
After all, Milan is always very attentive to young talents, and Van Bommel junior seems to have the right qualities to soar with the Rossoneri.
Ruben Van Bommel's numbers:
So far this season, the Dutch left-winger has managed to make 8 appearances, playing 517 minutes in total. He managed to score 6 goals and provide 3 assists. An impressive statistic for the talented forwqard. With the Eredivisie club, his contract runs until the summer of 2027.
According to Transfermarkt, the right-footed player's transfer value is set at 5 million euros.
