On Fabrizio Romano's YouTube channel, market expert Matteo Moretto just published a video where he talks about the Fullkrug-Milan deal, which is in the process of being finalized. Here are his words:
"Fullkrug, the German striker from West Ham, is leaving West Ham. West Ham has already informed the player, and there was a dialogue between the parties, between Fullkrug and West Ham itself, in which it was clearly and explicitly decided to part ways in January. Fullkrug is looking for a team, and we were the first to link his name to Milan, and two days ago we were the first to talk about this acceleration, this desire from Tare to secure Fullkrug as soon as possible."
"The feedback we were getting regarding Gimenez’s situation was negative physically, and it is no coincidence that Gimenez is undergoing surgery. Milan has decided to go all-in on Fullkrug. From a technical point of view, this operation can help Milan, because the team lacks a player with these characteristics, but economically, it is a straightforward deal. Milan wants to complete it as a simple loan until the end of the season, while West Ham is asking for an option to buy. Most likely, the two parties will meet halfway with a purchase option, but I can confirm that Milan wants to secure Fullkrug as soon as possible to have him in Milan quickly."
"I can confirm that discussions are ongoing between the clubs to define the details of the deal in terms of the formula. The player has already said yes. Then Milan will have to finalize Fullkrug’s contract, because some economic adjustments are needed. So it’s not done yet, but it’s in an advanced stage."
