A return to the top of Italian and European football world is the dream of every AC Milan fans. Now, the Rossoneri hope that the club goes to the next level especially with the Bahrain-based investment fund InvestCorp who are ready to make a deal with Elliott Management.
Elliott, for their part, have heard from different investors and are ready to let go of the club in case a serious offer arrives. A 2-week period has been granted for the Arab fund to find an agreement for the purchase of the Serie A giants. As per multiple recent reports, it seems that we are at very advanced stages of the negotiations.
To get Milan back to the top on a sporting level, Calciomercato.com speak of an important mercato operation in the summer. The profile in question would be Benfica's Darwin Nunez.
In fact, despite being very close to securing Divock Origi, Milan are still looking for other possible opportunities to take advantage of. Benfica have started auctions regarding a potential sale of Darwin Nunez thanks to his new agent Jorge Mendes.
The Portuguese super agent is indeed having talks already with Premier League heavyweights Manchester United among other English clubs. The Red Devils are reportedly pushing to sign the player for a fee around 75 million euros.
As per the same source, Milan will have to understand their financial resources in the coming few weeks first to see if they can enter the transfer race (with InvestCorp trying to secure a deal to buy the club).
Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara are reportedly big fans of Darwin Nunez and the Rossoneri were among the interested clubs in signing him even two years ago.
Darwin Nunez is certainly among the top talents in European football now. He is a 22 year-old Uruguayan centre-forward and his contract with Benfica ends in June 2025. This season, he scored 33 goals and 5 assists after 39 appearances for his club.
