This summer, two names have prevailed in the striker race for AC Milan: Dusan Vlahovic and Rasmus Hojlund. Now, it is getting nervy.
Signing a striker will make or break the Milan mercato. A quality number nine arriving would solve so many problems that the club is facing, both in the manager’s eyes as well as those of the fans. However, there has been a delay in all the cases.
Any move for a forward would be done late; that has been the idea throughout the window. Though it is now getting towards the ‘late’ stage, and nothing is really clear. In fact, there is a chance that neither arrives.
Late moves
As Corriere dello Sport (via MilanNews) write, the Rossoneri will contact Manchester United to see how much chance there is of getting Holund this summer. They hope to close a deal quickly, but the Dane is being targeted by others now.
If this does not provide any positivity, the focus would return to Vlahovic. However, this is no easier to solve.
In fact, the report states that a ‘major mediation’ will be required with Juventus seeking €35 million for the Serbian. Furthermore, he must halve his salary to join. To put it differently, the club are relying on chance to sign Vlahovic.
