Sky: Milan could move for Man Utd forward if sale materialises – the situation

Niclas Fullkrug might not be the only striker that AC Milan sign in the January transfer window, according to a report.

Milan have had some problems in the attacking department in this first part of the season, with Christopher Nkunku and Santiago Gimenez both having not scored a league goal yet. The latter is expected to be out for a couple of months after having undergone an operation to fix his ankle.

Zirkzee as well?

According to Luca Marchetti – who spoke live on Sky (via MilanNews) – Fullkrug might not be the only centre-forward to arrive. The deal for the German is now almost complete on loan with an option to buy, with the Rossoneri having decided to secure a deal immediately following Gimenez’s ankle surgery.

The journalist adds that the Rossoneri – should an exit like Christopher Nkunku’s occur – could pursue Manchester United’s Joshua Zirkzee. He is believed to be on his way out of Old Trafford, and was linked during his time at Bologna.

In this case, there would be multiple difficulties: a solution would need to be found for Nkunku, Roma are very keen on the Dutchman, who is their top target, and Manchester United’s financial demands will not be easy to meet.
