Di Marzio: The background on Milan’s interest in Enzo Fernandez amid Liverpool interest | OneFootball

AC Milan are one of the clubs that Enzo Fernandez was offered to by intermediaries last summer, a report claims.

As has been reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, the 21-year-old Benfica star is the target of almost every big club in Europe, with Premier League side Liverpool looking like the favourites to strike a deal with the Argentine’s entourage.

He joined Benfica from River Plate but in the summer, Milan were offered the chance to make a move for him and whilst there was a lot of admiration, the Rossoneri opted not to make a move for him.

They chose to direct their efforts toward assigning Charles De Ketelaere and Aster Vranckx for the midfield instead.

Fernandez is now a World Cup winner, but his valuation last summer was €12 million and €8 million in bonuses. He is now thought to be worth more than five times that, meaning Milan may feel a sense of missed opportunity.
