MN: Milan creating Belgian network after scouting mission – the game in focus

Several European games took place yesterday, and AC Milan were present to watch one between Genk and Basel. 

There has been a focus on youth talents in recent years, and this has been the core of RedBird’s recruitment. Of course, this summer was a step away from that with Milan signing Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot.

However, the signing of David Odogu proves that there is still a focus on value and potential, even if they are not ready straight away.

To Belgium… again

For the Rossoneri, Belgium has been a bit of a hotspot in recent years. Maxim De Cuyper and Tolu Arokodare have been options that went elsewhere, but Charles De Ketelaere and Ardon Jashari prove that there is a focus on the league.

In fact, it may become more intense in the future. Nicolo Tresoldi is a name to keep an eye on, and the Rossoneri may be considering others, too.

Last night, as MilanNews reports, the Diavolo sent ‘several scouts’ to Genk’s game to watch Kostantinos Karestas. The Greek forward scored a decisive goal and has been deemed one of the ‘most promising’ young players in Europe.

As an attacking midfielder, it would be interesting to see what the long-term plan for him would be.
