AC Milan are looking to bolster their midfield following the departure of Sandro Tonali. After signing Ruben Loftus-Cheek, the Rossoneri could bring in an additional two players for the department.
Tonali’s departure has not just resulted in a budget boost for Milan but also a hole in the midfield. Loftus-Cheek’s arrival is a step in the right direction, but at least one more midfielder is needed to compete with the big teams next season.
According to Matteo Moretto, Milan consider both Tijjani Reijnders and Yunus Musah top priorities for the midfield. Negotiations with AZ Alkmaar are continuing for the former, with a distance of about €5m right now (but there is optimism to close).
As for Musah, Milan’s first offer of €18m was rejected by Valencia, who are asking for €25m. The Rossoneri are set to make a new offer, per Moretto, and it remains to be seen if the Spanish side will budge on their demands.
Everything suggests that Milan will sign at least two more midfielders this summer, which makes sense especially if someone like Tommaso Pobega were to leave.
