Milan has only one name in mind: Santiago Gimenez, the number one target for the Rossoneri in the transfer market. However, they have yet to meet Feyenoord’s financial demands. The Dutch club does not want to lose the Mexican striker in January and, in any case, will wait until after tomorrow’s Champions League match. Nevertheless, they have set a base price of €40 million, plus additional bonuses worth 3-4 million euros, meaning they are not entirely closing the door on a possible sale.
Coach Brian Priske responds to Milan-Gimenez links:
Today, on the eve of the decisive match against Lille, the Rotterdam team’s coach, Danish manager Brian Priske, spoke at a press conference and also addressed the inevitable question about the Mexican player:
"I've seen a lot of movement around Santi in recent days. He’s a professional—these kinds of rumors exist in football, but we aim to stay focused on our objectives. If something like this happens, in football, you have to concentrate and keep working."
72 HOURS TO THE TRUTH
The coming hours will be crucial in determining the success of the deal. Milan wants its number 9, who, in turn, dreams of wearing the Rossoneri shirt. Furlani, with the help of Pimenta, is working behind the scenes to convince Feyenoord. The final offer is on its way, aiming to surpass the previous bid of €27 million plus various bonuses and a 10% resale clause, writes Calciomercato.com.
