Sky: The two signings Fonseca will request if he joins Milan | OneFootball

AC Milan are moving towards being able to appoint Paulo Fonseca as the next head coach and there are a couple of signings that he seems likely to ask for, a report claims.

According to what is being reported by Sky, Fonseca is the chosen one to become the new coach of Milan. The Portuguese has a meeting scheduled today with Marseille, who wanted him before the Rossoneri, but a return to Italy is at the forefront of his mind.

His intention is either to take a bit of time until he can sign with Milan or even immediately reject the offers both from Marseille and Lille, who want to extend his contract despite the fact they missed out on direct Champions League qualification in the very last minutes of the season and must instead go through qualifiers.

The former Roma boss is convinced by Milan’s long-term project (it would be a three-year contract) because it offers the guarantees of having a competitive team combined with the possibility of returning to Serie A.

He could make two requests in terms of signings as per the source: a right-back and a striker. We exclusively reported that Tiago Santos of Lille is someone that the directors like and he could fill the former role, while Jonathan David continues to be heavily linked after a red hot start to 2024.
