AC Milan managers are ready to make a considerable effort to land an important name from Atletico Madrid, claims a report.
The Rossoneri club directors are looking at all kinds of opportunities in the market to strengthen their team and make sure that coach Stefano Pioli has good options at his disposal.
The latest player to appear on the Rossoneri's radar is none other than Atlético Madrid's young talent Joao Felix who joined the Spanish team in 2019 for 70 million euros coming from Benfica.
Last year, the Portuguese 21-year-old forward scored only 7 goals from 31 games and with the presence of Griezmann, he is finding less space to display his quality.
For their part, Atlético Madrid still value the player highly on an economic level and would like to receive a fee of 60 million euros for him in event of a sale. Calciomercatonews.com report that AC Milan, Inter and Juventus are interested in the player.
The amount of 60 million euros is definitely a big asking price for AC Milan. However, the managers have hatched a plan, hoping to convince the Spaniards of agreeing a deal.
Il Diavolo club directors are aware tha renewing Franck Kessié's contract is becoming very difficult as it runs out in June 2022 and same can be said about team captain Alessio Romagnoli. Therefore, the Rossoneri board could put on the table the cards of Franck Kessié and Alessio Romagnoli in exchange for Joao Felix in January, hoping that it would be enough to conclude a deal.
