Some ESPN journalist said that according to his sources James Rodriguez is very close to joining Milan.

I don't know how to feel about this. If he were a couple of years younger then fine, but he's 30, very injury prone and always been a regular benchwarmer. Would he be an upgrade over Capanoglu? Probably, but I'm still not convinced.

Agreed

The injuries are a huge worry.

The mentioned contract also is worrying. 6m for 3 years?? And we're being stingy with f@cking Kessie of all players?? Makes no sense if these numbers are correct

Not sure what to believe at this moment to be honest. Others just mention Milan probing for James but deny advanced talks.

Milan and Atalanta are in advanced talks for Pobega for 12M.

Another one people are very pissed for at the moment. It's like we're trying to sell all these youngsters so we can only make a profit. Pobega would be a net gain of 12M, Huage if sold for 15M would be a net gain of 11M. That's 23M of profit on the income statement.

Now, Pobega had a decent season with Spezia. He only played 20 games / 1238 minutes in total, but he also scored 6 goals and made 3 assists. People are pissed that we're selling him for just 12M when guys like Scamacca and Damsgaard are being valued at 30-40M. And I get it. But at the same time I think those price tags are a bluff, cos no one would pay that much in reality.

I'm just irked that we're giving away Pobega so easily. The kid is just 22, he has talent. Yet all we care about is making money, so Elliott can have a healthy investment he can then sell to the highest bidder. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Jeremy Doku of Belgium was really good last night! Wouldn't mind him as a forward in Milan

This is similar to the situation with Locatelli though. Even worse actually. Pobega as he is today will never play for us. I personally think we should loan him out again. If nothing else, if he has another good season his value will go up a bit more by next summer.

If we're going to sell him, we should put in a buyback clause that covers us at least until 2023. That's the biggest mistake we made on the Locatelli deal. Not inserting that clause.

But if they do need the cash injection to make moves this summer, then they will have to be sacrificed imo. We need an AM, a RW a backup midfielder and another FB, preferably someone comfortable on either side. Not to mention a striker. Some sacrifices will have to be made to improve this team. Unfortunately they will have to be the players who have some value but are not integral to the team as of this moment

I think I heard the commentators say he's going to Leicester during the game. Not 100% sure I heard right though. EPL clubs will price anyone else out of that right quick anyway for these types of players

Rennes bought him last year for 26M. His price will have gone at least 35-40M by now. Out of our league, as most good players.

What a beautiful gesture from Tonali, he reduced his wages to facilitate the transfer to Milan.

Future Captain in the making.

OH for sure Milan will be out priced, would be great to have him. But definitely out of the club's league.

Then there is the Ajax forward Tadic... His stats reveal great things, would definitely be pleased if Milan signed him

In all honesty, trading our two young players for a 32-year old Tadić is not the right direction IMO.

Tadic would be a new low.

Honestly, don't even want to think about the names we're being linked to right now

I think most outlets or the usual guys like Di Marzio and Romano don't know what's really going on.

We're probably going to try to sell before we buy because at this point it seems like there's no real cashflow for Maldini and Massara to operate with

Doesn't seem right, I know what you mean. Think Tadic would be instead of Giroud. A vice Ibra.

Then there much be other transactions for the attack, in place of both Hauge and Leo... But the names are probably not yet in circulation.


There is a tightness in the budget, as all teams had to forego stadium income, also merchandising was most likely down as well. Milan doesn't compete on the top line with any of the top teams in Europe, hence the sale of players to fund a CL worthy squad is the only means forward.

That being said, I would appreciate if the management do slap on a repurchase agreement for any of our young/promising players that they end up selling.

I have no idea how we're going to fund one top AM, one top RW and one top FW, alongside other minor purchases, if we have no cash and keep pushing only for loan options. It's absurd.

And in all honesty, if we're gonna keep playing 4-2-3-1, I also think we need a top LW. Rebic has been a huge disappointment in the last 6 months. His Euro was also rubbish, probably Croatia's most disappointing player.

We're running a very tight ship right now and I feel like Maldini has his hands tied from above.

According to Sky, Milan are close to finalizing a purchase of Kaio Jorge a forward from Santos for Eur8.5M.

Apparently Milan beat Juve, Napoli and Porto.

This pending official confirmation.
