Report: Ibrahimovic pushing for Kostic signing with immediate plan in mind – the reason

It seems that AC Milan will make the signing of Andrej Kostic in January, and the youngster will immediately head for the Futuro project.

Many will request that Milan sign a first-team striker in January, and they are doing so in Niclas Fullkrug. However, he may not be the one that many want, especially with him only arriving on loan. He will not be the only forward to arrive, though.

As reported in recent days, the Rossoneri will also make the signing of Kostic from Partizan, who will turn 19 in January. So far this season, he has scored eight goals in the Serbian SuperLiga, a fantastic record for someone that young.

Ibra’s push

MozzartSport, a Serbian outlet, report that no official offers have been given to Darko Ristic, but one is expected, as Milan Press relays. The Diavolo will pay €2.5 million upfront, but bonuses could increase the fee to €5m. It is worth noting that there are some suggestions that the final fee could even be as much as €8m, though.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, as the report states, has pushed for this move massively, alongside Jovan Kirovski, with the striker planned to play for Milan Futuro. To aid his development, he will train with the senior team, should he arrive.
