As reported by those at MilanNews.it, striker Santiago Gimenez has decided to remain at AC Milan. The Mexican’s situation had been one of the most talked-about topics in these final hours of the transfer window, with the club seemingly prepared to move beyond the player after signing him for over 30 million euros in January. The most concrete option on the table, and the one most seriously pursued, was a swap deal with Artem Dovbyk involving Roma.
The player listened to Roma’s proposal, as well as those of other clubs who showed interest during these hectic final hours of the market. After careful consideration, Milan’s No. 7 chose to continue his journey with the Rossoneri. Helping his decision was also the fact that Milan and Roma could not agree on the structure of the respective transfers.
Among the main reasons behind Gimenez’s choice is the bond he feels with Milan’s supporters, a connection he considers very special and one he wants to repay through his performances on the pitch. This sentiment was echoed in a story posted just minutes ago by his agent Rafaela Pimenta, who tagged him while paraphrasing a Rossoneri chant: “Sarà perché tifiamo” (“It must be because we cheer”). Gimenez’s new objective is to prove the club wrong and convince Allegri that he is the right man to lead Milan’s attack.
