Costacurta says he would rather see Milan play Camarda than sign Lukaku | OneFootball

AC Milan have been linked with the former Inter man Romelu Lukaku in the last few weeks, but the rumours haven’t exactly been met with excitement. In addition to the fans, club legend Billy Costacurta believes it wouldn’t be the right signing.

Lukaku is not exactly liked in the red and black parts of Milano, and perhaps not in the blue and back parts now either, but reports suggest that Milan are interested. Talks have been held with Chelsea over a loan deal, though the English side are keen on a permanent one.

Speaking live on Sky Italia last night, as cited by MilanNews, Milan legend Billy Costacurta was asked about the Lukaku links. He stated that he would rather give the youngster Francesco Camarda – set to play for Milan Futuro – the chance instead.

“Lukaku? I don’t think he would have any issues with the environment, but I’m no longer a big fan of his. Instead of Lukaku, I hope Camarda can play,” he stated.

Joshua Zirkzee remains the first choice and it remains to be seen if the Rossoneri will be able to close a deal for him. In any case, it’s safe to say that Lukaku’s potential arrival would be far from popular.
