Last night, AC Milan beat Sassuolo 6-1 in the Coppa Italia round of 16. Now, however, attention is on Atalanta. The Rossoneri are focusing on their next challenge where three points are needed to confirm this positive form against a very ambitious and strong side.
Meanwhile, however, the club managers are also keeping an eye on the transfer market opportunities as some players are on the radar.
Milan transfer news - Who will the Rossoneri try to sign?
The club's idea is to sign 'ready-to-use' players who are already familiar with Serie A to avoid any issues with adaptation. Additionally, the club prefers players who are either Italian or Under-22, to avoid overcrowding in the league registration lists.
For the left-back position, keep an eye on Fabiano Parisi, who is likely leaving Fiorentina. For the defensive midfielder role, the latest transfer rumors, including reports from Repubblica, point to Warren Bondo from Monza. Meanwhile, the club is also keeping an eye on the summer transfer window, as relayed via PianetaMilan.it.
In June, in fact, Milan’s transfer revolution will be even more extensive. It will be crucial to determine whether all the players whose contracts expire on June 30, 2026, have signed renewals. Specifically, the situation with Theo Hernández needs to be closely studied: could he leave to finance incoming moves? In that case, a top-quality left-back would be necessary.
In addition to that, Milan would need a new right-back (as Davide Calabria will leave when his contract expires), a new regista (the club plans to sell Ismaël Bennacer and replace him with Samuele Ricci from Torino), and likely a couple of forwards.
One on the wing, as Samuel Chukwueze’s future remains uncertain, and another central forward, in case Tammy Abraham isn’t retained after his loan from Roma. But attention should also be given to the trequartista position...
Christian Pulisic does not have a replacement in his role, and Milan has highlighted in their transfer notebook, at the top, the name of Franco Mastantuono, a 2007-born Argentine attacking midfielder from River Plate. He has a release clause of 41 million euros, payable in two installments, with a contract expiring in 2026.
Geoffrey Moncada is reportedly very interested in the River Plate starlet and is considering whether to make a concrete offer to River Plate for a player who could become a South American and global star in the coming years. According to reports from Corriere dello Sport and Tuttosport, however, Inter has also entered the race for Mastantuono. Inter's executive Dario Baccin has flown to Argentina for him (and others), meaning Milan now needs to act quickly to avoid being left empty-handed.
