Of the top nine teams in the Serie A standings, only Lazio has conceded more goals than Milan (45 to 39). A significant statistic that reflects a trend seen also in the previous two seasons, when, with Stefano Pioli on the bench, the Rossoneri conceded too many goals to seriously think about aiming for something important. The signing of Strahinja Pavlović from Salzburg for 18 million euros has not yet brought the desired results; the Serbian defender still needs to grow a lot both tactically and technically to be considered a Milan-level player. That’s why the upcoming summer will be one of major operations in defense for the team.
Who will leave AC Milan in the next summer transfer window?
The direction became even clearer after the certainty of not participating in the next Champions League: the path of self-financing will also be necessary for Milan’s next summer transfer window. The defenders most likely to leave the Rossoneri are mainly two: Malick Thiaw and Fikayo Tomori. The former is attracting interest especially from Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich, the latter from West Ham and other clubs. Both are expected to leave Milan if offers of 25 million euros arrive, with or without bonuses.
Arrivals at Milanello in the summer?
Christian Mosquera is certainly a profile Geoffrey Moncada has been advocating for at Milan for months. He is a right-footed central defender born in 2004, already a key player for Valencia and part of the Spanish Under-21 national team. With only one year left on his contract with the Andalusian club, Mosquera has also become a concrete target for Atletico Madrid. Also on the list are Koni De Winter, central defender of Genoa who is also liked by Inter, 24-year-old Spanish defender, Mario Gila of Lazio, and 25-year-old French centre-back Oumar Solet of Udinese. Particular attention will also be given to more experienced profiles who can become leaders in the department right away and under favorable contract conditions.
