Matteo Moretto, speaking on Fabrizio Romano's YouTube channel, provided some updates on AC Milan's transfer market, particularly regarding their interest in Nicolò Tresoldi, the future of Francesco Camarda and the idea of signing Endrick. Here are his words:
Milan considering a move for Tresoldi
"A few days ago, I told you how Milan came very close to signing Tresoldi a few years ago. The boy actually arrived, visited Milanello and went to Casa Milan, and the contracts were even ready. I want to clarify that, given that he was a very young player at the time, the operation was not personally supervised by Paolo Maldini. There were other people handling that operation. At the time, Ricky Massara was also Milan's transfer market man, along with some other people.
The deal did not actually reach the signing stage because Milan stalled, and the player returned to Germany, effectively signing a new contract with Hannover. Regardless of that, Tresoldi is now being talked about a lot in relation to Milan's present and future. However, I want to clarify a few points. I can confirm that it is true that Cardinale likes him very much and Milan are also very keen on him. The club are assessing what steps to take in an attempt to complete this kind of signing, but there are several points that need to be clarified. First of all, there is Club Brugge's position, because Club Brugge are a very difficult club to negotiate with. We also need to understand Club Brugge's results in the Champions League because, if they progress to the next round, they will earn a significant amount of money and will not need to sell.
Club Brugge's idea is to keep Tresoldi until the end of the season in order to finish their campaign strongly. As for the money Brugge are asking for, we need to understand whether €50 million will be enough.
These are important points, and then there is plenty of competition across Europe, because several clubs in Spain, Germany and England want Tresoldi. Milan's interest is there, and it is true that Milan are looking for a striker in January."
Camarda to leave on loan
"Camarda has not found the playing time that he himself had hoped for. The club certainly continue to have faith in Camarda, but I can confirm that Milan's intention is to let Camarda leave in January. The idea is for him to try a new experience so that he can develop, get playing time and demonstrate his qualities. Milan have made their decision. We will then see whether things change between now and January. Anything can happen in football; perhaps he scores three goals in a row and the situation changes, but as things stand today, Milan have decided to let Camarda leave in January. For this reason, the club are already looking at other strikers, beyond Tresoldi. There are also other names on the list of the Rossoneri club."
Endrick towards a loan move in January?
"Despite Mourinho continuing to say that Endrick will remain at Real Madrid, the truth is that, at this moment, the ball is in the player's court. If the player decides to inform Real Madrid that he wants to try a new experience in order to develop and play, Real Madrid will not oppose it. I can tell you that these are precisely the indications we are getting.
As of today, there have not yet been any official communications between the parties, but I can confirm that Endrick, as he also stated in a recent interview, is open to a new loan experience similar to Lyon, which could give him a more prominent role and more playing time, also with a view to the national team. Endrick wants to play. I can tell you that, as things stand today, there are two clubs in Italy, but the club that are further ahead are Roma. Roma have always kept the contacts alive, are interested in the player and watched him very closely in that famous Champions League match won by Real Madrid in the final minutes. I know that, as things stand today, Endrick is more likely to leave than stay. Roma are quite far ahead, while Milan are slightly behind at the moment, despite the good relations between Cardinale and Roc Nation, and between Milan and Real Madrid. There are Premier League clubs and Portuguese clubs interested in Endrick."
