Milan Reignite Chase of Manchester City Target Ricci

Milan have been chasing after Samuele Ricci for a while and are ready to step up their efforts to acquire him. The deal is a lot more likely to come together in the summer than in January, Sky reports.

In any case, the Rossoneri intend to move early and beat the competition. The Granata are in talks to extend his contract. He has been linked to Manchester City following Rodri’s injury.

Milan will try to set the stage to bring in Ricci eventually. He has universal approval within the team, but his valuation is high, at least €30M. He has a few other suitors in the Premier League, Calciomercato informs. Luka Jovic could be offered as an early bargaining chip since Torino need a striker after losing Duvan Zapata.

In the meantime, Verona director Sean Sogliano spoke about another Rossoneri target, Reda Belahyane. He has more chances to be on the move in January, during Il Gran Galà del Calcio (via SOSFanta).

“We have often sold our most promising youngsters. Finding the right balance between building a competitive team and dealing with the transfer market necessities is a challenge. It’s not easy, but we need to be capable of handling these situations.”

Our Take on Milan and Ricci

He’d be one of the safest possible signings and tip the transition to a pure three-man midfield, as he’d have to start regularly next to Youssouf Fofana and Tijjani Reijnders. On the other hand, he’d cost more than any single acquisition they have completed since RedBird Capital took over. Torino will have an easy time fueling a bidding war.
