Milan haven’t forgotten about Santiago Gimenez, whom they chased last summer and continues to be a target to shore up their frontline. The Rossoneri have major uncertainty in the role behind Alvaro Morata, Calciomercato informs.
Luka Jovic is on his way out. His contract expires in the summer and won’t be renewed. The brass will seek to offload him in January already. He has barely played this campaign due to a sports hernia. The officials proposed him to Torino to facilitate the future acquisition of Samuele Ricci. The Englishman is on loan from Roma with no option to buy. He has regressed after a sound start.
Gimenez revealed that Milan contacted him late in the previous window, but he ended up staying put at Feyenoord. He hasn’t had a great start as he’s been hampered by a thigh issue. He has scored four goals and provided two assists in seven appearances before being forced to spend time on the sidelines. The 23-year-old filled his boots in 2023/2024, hitting the net 23 times in 30 Eredivisie games.
The Rossoneri will have to turn to their deputies against Slovan Bratislava as Alvaro Morata is disqualified due to yellow-card accumulation. Abraham is likely to get the nod. A new signing also hinges on Francesco Camarda’s growth.
Despite not being great so far, their roster doesn’t have a lot of holes, so, if Abraham doesn’t show signs of life, they should consider making a move in January already. They had their best showings with two strikers together and Morata as a no.10.
