Santiago Gimenez is not the ideal striker for Allegri’s style, which is why Milan are reportedly searching for a new centre-forward in this transfer window. Victor Boniface, Patrick Schick, Tolu Arokodare, and Nicolas Jackson are just some of the names linked with the Rossoneri, who seem to have already identified their main target.
Green light for Dusan Vlahovic
After weeks of hesitation, Giorgio Furlani has finally given the green light to Igli Tare to negotiate for Dusan Vlahovic, who is clearly surplus to requirements in the Juventus dressing room. As is well known, the striker—coming off a very difficult season with the Bianconeri—has already turned down several significant offers from Turkey, holding firm on his desire to continue earning €12 million per year and to let his contract expire next summer.
Of course, this strategy only holds if no tempting opportunity presents itself—and Milan certainly qualifies as one. After initial reluctance, Furlani has authorized Tare to pursue negotiations for Vlahovic, but with a strict cap of €10 million for the Serbian’s transfer fee. That’s not all. “A sacrifice will also be needed from the player, who must agree to lower his salary. At Milan, he would be earning significantly less than his final wage at Juve. The deal has yet to take off, but the right time may soon come," as relayed via Milan News.
Milan-Vlahovic, the numbers with Allegri
Head coach Massimiliano Allegri knows Dusan Vlahovic very well, given that the two worked together at Juventus. During their shared time in black and white colors, the Serbian, with Max on the bench, scored 41 goals in 99 matches played.
