Sky: Milan targeting six players worth a combined €118m – two are close to joining

By Oliver Fisher -

There are currently six signings that AC Milan are concretely working on with two of them being close to completion, a report claims.

According to the latest from Sky (seen below), Milan are closing in on two signings for the attack in Marcus Thuram and Daichi Kamada. Both are on expiring contracts with Borussia Mönchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt respectively, and thus would join for free.

Davide Frattesi appears to be the name chosen as Sandro Tonali’s replacement in the midfield but his asking price at the moment is €40m, while Tijjani Reijnders is also on the list and AZ Alkmaar are asking for €18m to sell.

Finally there is two wingers being targeted two, the first of whom is Samuel Chukwueze of Villarreal, with the LaLiga club currently demanding €40m to sell.

Then there is Christian Pulisic, who Chelsea are expected to let go of for around €20m this summer given their need to secure exits.

  1. Sounds plausible, with the exception of both Pulisic and Chukwueze – I doubt both would arrive.

    And fingers crossed for Kamada and Thuram, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

    1. I would rather have Tonali + Guler (80m + 17.5m = 97.5m) than Fratesi + Chuk + Pulisic (40m + 40m + 20m = 100m).

      1. It is already done deal . Well lets see who coming . My prediction Tonali sale will use to fund transfer for frattesi + samuel chukwu . While transfer fee for arda guler or pulisic & new DMF will use basic budget 50m euro that given by RedBird . Dont forget ACM still need to pay fee agent for kamada & marcus if want to sign both free transfer

  2. All 6 together are not worth like Sandro Tonali…

    I still pray that he’ll stay.

    Fck this american owners..
    They should bring good times. Strengthen our squad and not selling the best players.

    If someone write that Sandro went for money. Remember that Tonali could choose Juve or Inter who offered a bigger salary.
    He even took a pay cut when it was needed!!

    This isn’t about money. It is about Cardinale / Redbird making money for them..

    1. Tomali should have been the heart and soul of the club for the next 5+ years, but time to move on from that. He’s taking the Newcastle petro-dollar, leaving on good terms and all the best to him and his family.

      If we can use him leaving to upgrade the RW, CF positions whilst also replacing Diaz with Kamada and getting in two CMs to replace him and Bonnacer, then it’s worth seeing the silver lining here.

    2. Stop being such a Tonali fanboy. Milan will be much stronger if this happens. Our midfielder was a weakness this past season. Tonali was a part of that problem. He is not worth what they are getting for him and it is a ssmart move by Milan and will help strengthen the team.

    1. Yeah, I’ve said it months ago, Milan will be more Atalanta than Atalanta is. The horror will happen if Milan doesn’t finish in top 4. You will see 2 of the best players sold to make up for that money. It is clearl how it will be. Yes, they will buy replacements but that replacement will be sold in a year if they are good and the offer is ok and on to the new player.

      2. “It is clearl how it will be”… Stop what you’re doing everyone – gather round gather round the soothsayer has spoken once again! He forseeth all before us – he knowest all that befall us!

  4. There is that part of us as a fan to feel bad for what’s happening to the exodus of those who loved Milan pushed out of the club by this so called Americans! Yet there is the reality of the fact that none of the clubs controlled by Italian directors ( Juve , Inter and Milan,) that is in good financial health…Now thanks to redbird and Elliot Milan story is changing and going the direcrion of Napoli De Laurentiis who also took a strong stance and american approach prioritizing financial health over everything…..I believe it will be well with milan

  5. Different era at Milan now. Calculated moves, free of emotion. Love it or hate it. We move on. Let’s see who they bring in.

  6. with transfer strategy based on limited fund hoping there is a change in milan is almost impossible that what has happened we could not compete in europe and domestic inconsistency always win in the beginning and losing even to small club in the middle and end of season. tonaly would be great if we have much fund make him the legend of the club same like maldini or gerard in liverpool but milan nowdays could not afford that we need change dynamic change if there is no change milan will be behind other european clubs. tonali perhaps helps milan to change if we his trading milan will spend smart and strategic new players if not tonali sacrifice will be useless

    1. Keep dreaming brother. The point is they didn’t NEED to sell to unlock other transfers. This is all PR SPIN. You easily forget we made 120M from UCL run yet our budget was cut from 50M to 35M. A reasonable budget of 80M (normally 50M plus an extra 30M considering UCL run) plus some sales of other less important players gets you to 100M – more than enough to buy most of these players AND still keep the future captain and heart of the team. ALL PR SPIN that we NEEDED to sell lol. We made a PROFIT this past year. SMH

  10. Everybody is fair game with this Tonali sale. Nows the time for Cardinale to show intent with decent signings. If he misses this opportunity the floodgates will open, we will lose our best players over the next 2 seasons.
