Among the many market objectives that AC Milan has in view of the summer transfer window, which will open on July 1st, there is also the goal of bringing in a new central defender who can pair with Fikayo Tomori and fill the gap left by Simon Kjaer.
The Rossoneri club had also sought a defender in January, when Pioli's team found itself practically without an entire department from mid-December to mid-February, but in the end, the Rossoneri settled for the return of Matteo Gabbia from his loan in Spain.
This summer, the story will and must be different. Among the most sought-after names is Alessandro Buongiorno, a Torino defender, one of the best emerging talents in our league, and called up by Spalletti for the European Championship in Germany, as relayed via Milan News.
According to a report from Repubblica this morning, there is a head-to-head between Milan and Napoli for the player. According to the source, the Rossoneri club is ahead due to the contacts made with his entourage last January, which ultimately did not materialize. What is causing concern for both clubs, however, is the 40 million euros valuation. It remains to be seen if there is room to negotiate a lower price with Torino's president, Urbano Cairo.
