GdS: ’An Azzurro block’ – Chiesa, Lucca and Comuzzo among targets for ‘Italian Milan’

It seems that AC Milan are heading towards an Italian revolution, and this could be the case on and off the pitch.

In recent weeks, it has become very apparent that Milan want to make themselves an Italian outfit once again, and Fabio Paratici, who is expected to become the new sporting director, agrees with this idea.

So, with an Italian director and an increasingly likely to be Italian coach, the Rossoneri will start finding the pieces to the new puzzle, and Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) writes that a few ideas have been laid down so far.

An Azzurro attack

In the attack, there are three names that come above the others: Federico Chiesa, Riccardo Orsolini and Lorenzo Lucca. However, the club are aware of the fact that only bringing all of them to the club will be difficult.

Chiesa’s name floats around, with his situation in Liverpool favourable for any club with the finances to end it, giving he wants to return to being a starter. For Orsolini and Lucca, their names were mentioned in January, but other moves were made. The former could be available for cheaper, due to Tomasso Pobega’s loan, whilst Lucca’s future depends on the Tammy Abraham decision, with the Friulians asking for more than €35 million.

The Italian middleground

Abraham’s story is far from done yet, with him still showing signs of importance for the Diavolo. However, his high salary is off-putting for the club, so another option may be taken. Roma continue to ask about Alexis Saelemaekers, so if Abraham was not the answer, Bryan Cristante or Lorenzo Pellegrini could be sought, with both being looked at previously by the club.

Also on the list is Davide Frattesi, who could leave Inter, which Milan would be ready to pounce on.

Italian rearguard

At the back, Destiny Udogie is heavily admired, as are Pietro Comuzzo and Diego Coppola. If Theo were to depart, the first calls would be to Tottenham, it may seem, with Paratici having an excellent relationship with the player. Centrally, reinforcements are needed, and Coppola may be one of the future. Fiorentina, on the other hand, see Comuzzo as a ready player, and his €40m valuation reflects that.
