In this summer's transfer market window, AC Milan have done many operations especially in the incoming market. The club also aims to start the process of thinning out the squad.
Andrea Conti has returned from his loan at Parma after the season's end and it seems that he has no place in Stefano Pioli's project.
The player did not show dominance and great abilities in the friendly game at Milanello behind closed doors against Pro Sesto in the 6-0 win. Simply put, he no longer convinces anyone at Milan, writes Calciomercat.com.
But, it is hard to find a new destination for the Italian right-back, former defender of Atalanta. His salary exceeds 2 million euros net per season. It is a big salary for the clubs who could be interested in him. Genoa and Sampdoria, who are keen, cannot approach these figures.
Another obstacle is the cost of the player's card. As pointed out by the same source, Milan does not want to register a loss in the books and cannot let the player leave on loan becaue his contract expires at the end of the next season.
Anyone who really wants to sign the Italian right-back has to put on the table a fee of at least 5 million euros, which is the amount required for this player in order to not mark a loss in the balance sheet.
Therefore, it is clearly a complicated situation for the AC Milan directors and the player himself whose future at the San Siro is over. There should be work to find a solution soon, concludes the report.
