Antonio Conte would ask for five quality signings if he were to become the head coach of AC Milan, including a couple of players that he knows very well.
Late last month, Luca Momblano did a segment live on Telelombardia in which he claimed that Conte has reached a verbal agreement to take over at Milan, and since then the rumours have gone into overdrive again.
Now, the same source have taken a look at the signings that Conte has apparently asked for, starting with Romelu Lukaku whom he worked with at Inter. He is likely to leave Roma, and would cost about €40m.
The same amount would be spent on Federico Chiesa, who Juventus could sacrifice in the summer to finance their summer transfer plans especially amid the questionable way Max Allegri is using him,
In midfield, then, Conte would like Rodrigo de Paul – currently at Atlético Madrid – whose value is around €30m. At centre-back, Alessandro Buongiorno of Torino is a target for around €40m.
However, the first signing in the summer that Conte would love to have for his Milan is Giovanni Di Lorenzo. Conte believes Davide Calabria is not a good fit for his 3-5-2, so he has the Napoli captain in his sights who is worth €30m.
How would all these signings be finances? With the sale of Rafael Leão to PSG or another club as per the source, and with the money from other sales like Charles De Ketelaere and Alexis Saelemaekers.
Chiesa? He has more injuries than all Milan-players combined.
Is Telelombardia a propaganda outlet owned by Conte? They are the only media pushing this Conte to Milan nonsense.
F that. Ain’t no way we selling leao, conte can go for another club
If a offer comes from psg, guaranteed Milan sells regardless of who the manager is
100% There’s just no way Milan turns down anything over 120mil (150mil hopefully).
What they are saying makes me wish Conte stays as far away from Milan as possible.
Ditto.
Milan are not going to hire Conte.
I would love AC Milan next season to be tutored by Conte……!!!!
Conte only wants to come to club who ready big spend every mercato. Are milan ready with his tagline now build with some young player ? I dont think so. Stick with pioli or sign gasparini as coach next season.
Sounds promising, but then again it was like that at the end of last summer’s transfer window. I think signing Chiesa and Lukaku is a huge gamble, but if it works out then great. The only negative thing in all of this is benching Pulisic. Yes, we can shift to 3-4-3 mid game and have Chiesa on LW, pulisic on RW and Lukaku as a CF to rotate with Giroud, but we would need at least 1 LWB as backup for theo and LW that can play in centar like Okafor.
Woww you’re very good and smart too,my wish for the club is that the American 🇺🇸 owner will sell the club to the Arab owners whom can invest more and more ever transfer season and not to sell our key players before buying another..
this again? Did they hack contes emails or something? Smeels like bs to me
most of them are in or near their 30s, Milan isnt buying them..
Yeah… Conte may want them but the management won’t give him the money for them. That’s guaranteed.
180mil if those prices are correct. But I don’t see di Lorenzo, chiesa leaving.
Yeah lets buy all these players in their 30s and ruin the clubs’ finances
It seems nobody has learned from Roma. They got rid of that park-the-bus me-vs-the-world troglodite Trump wanna be dinosaur Mourinho and have gone 3-0-0 since, with a guy whose only prior experience was going 3-6-7 with SPAL in Serie B. Roma have a good squad and Mourinho suffocated it. NO to Conte. NO to negative football.
Mourinho would’ve won these 3 games
Wait for the inter game and europa league to start before judging de rossi
Speculation is great. Maybe if Mourinho had gotten an extension he would have won Serie A next season? Who knows! Wait until they play Inter? LOL. Wait until anybody plays Inter. Anyway, my post isn’t about how De Rossi is the next Guardiola, it is about coaches who play archaic boring defensive football and are unnecessarily confrontational to boot.
Please NO. Too much new signings.
– RWB : Calabria or Saelemaekers. Saelemaekers might be better in advanced role than RB.
And i think Conte might prefers 3-4-3 like when he did with Chelsea, because AC Milan has very good wingers in Leao, Pulisic, Chukwueze. Or Conte can move Leao to CF, Pulisic as LW & Chukwueze as RW.
And for double Pivot : Loftus-Cheeks & Bennacer with backup Musah & Adli.
Don’t ask about CBs & WBL, because AC Milan already has the best in Serie-A :
– Theo Hernandez’s best pos ofcourse as an advancing WB : WBL.
– 3 CBs : Kalulu, Thiaw, Tomori. With backup : Gabbia, Kjaer, Pellegrini. Very deep CBs.
Selling Leao for 150 mil would be a great idea. De paul and Di lorenzo i am a fan of that idea.
Why do these idiots keep pushing this Conte nonsense. NOBODY wants him here. And we sure as hell don’t want Lukaku.
All 30 year old players? Can’t this guy ask for a guy who fits his system but is young
I don’t know how much stock I’m putting into anything Telelombardia has to say..
They are just generating clicks and views at this point.
Conte cannot give anything to Milan with current player. He like to spend money.
