Milan derby for Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee. The Dutch center forward, eleven goals in this championship, he is Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s favourite, an increasingly central man in Gerry Cardinale’s Milan project. The footballer born in 2001 who grew up in Bayern Munich has a rating of approximately 60 million euros: the Rossoneri club thinks he could be the ideal player to fill the place left vacant by Olivier Giroud.
On the other hand, Inter will also try to get their hands on Zirkzee. Meanwhile with Bologna, writes theGazzetta dello Sport‘, the Nerazzurri club can play the Fabbian card, a midfielder who can be repurchased in 2025 for 12 million euros but is already worth much more today: Sartori’s idea is to confirm him and Marotta could at that point also widen the discussion to the Dutchman, a purchase that would also be financed by the sales of Valentin Carboni (the Fiorentina option is still valid) and Filip Stankovic, a goalkeeper currently on loan at Sampdoria.
But Inter want to accelerate for Zirkzee also because Marcus Thuram has a lot of market. In the French center forward’s contract there is a release clause of 85 million, Inter intend to go down from that figure. But if someone were to touch it, then the ball would pass to the Frenchman. To date, it must be said, there are no concrete moves in this direction.
