The Milan club officially confirmed yesterday the signing of Gonçalo Ramos, the new number 9 for the Rossoneri. It had been known for days that the Rossoneri had successfully concluded negotiations with PSG: a record-breaking purchase in the history of the club, which had never spent so much to sign a new player. Transfer expert journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, on his daily podcast in collaboration with Tuttomercatoweb.com, discussed the Gonçalo Ramos deal, also revealing an interesting behind-the-scenes detail.
Di Marzio’s behind-the-scenes insight on Gonçalo Ramos, the Milan striker: "Milan signing Gonçalo Ramos and perhaps paying more than his actual value is not in doubt, but they are certainly bringing to Italy a true centre-forward, a number 9 who scores when he plays. We are talking about a player with high technical quality, a real striker who takes part in build-up play, who knows how to play with his teammates. In fact, and this is the insider detail, Como were also interested in Gonçalo Ramos precisely because of these specific characteristics, which fit well with a possession-based style of football like Fabregas’, a technical style of football that relies on practically all players taking part in attacking moves. So it is no coincidence that Como were also interested in Ramos, but the player’s price was too high."
