new move by Moncada for the first purchase

At Milan, work is underway not only for the new coach, with Moncada who is accelerating for his first shot on the transfer market.

Work continues at home Milan ahead of next season. The priority question certainly remains that relating to the new coach, with Paulo Fonseca who should soon sign his contract which will tie him to the Rossoneri until 2026. At the end of the tour in Australia the official announcement should arrive, with the Portuguese coach who will receive 3 million euros per season for the next two years. Once this situation is over, the concentration of the Rossoneri managers will be on the construction to be entrusted to the now former Lille coach.

After the departure of Olivier Giroud and Simon Kjaer, Milan are looking for a new number 9 and a central defender. The first name on the list of Geoffrey Moncada remains that of the Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee, but the very high costs make the operation very complicated but always to be monitored. As for the new central defender, the dream remains Alexander Good morning of Turin, which other teams in our championship would also have their eyes on, including Antonio Conte’s Napoli. In addition to replacing the two players who left Milan, the management of the Via Aldo Rossi club is also looking for a new midfielder, with Moncada having intensified contacts with the French midfielder’s entourage.

Milan, not just Zirkzee: eyes also on Monaco’s Fofana

In view of next season, Milan’s idea is to strengthen the midfield, seeking a balance in the middle of the pitch which has often been missing during this year. The name identified by Moncada is that of Youssouf Fofana, midfielder for Monaco and the French national team. The 1999 class is considered the perfect element to place in front of the defence, who would add characteristics that have been missing from the Rossoneri midfield this season. The midfielder has had contact with Milan through his entourage, with Moncada working with Monaco to find an agreement. The contract expiring in 2025 could facilitate Fofana’s exit, with a figure just over 20 million euros that could be enough.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport on the front Joshua Zirkzee new contacts have been registered. Milan is working to overcome the obstacle of the high commissions to be guaranteed to the agent, with the request of 15/20 million considered excessive. The Rossoneri, however, may not stop at purchasing the Dutchman for the attack. In fact, Paulo Fonseca would see the Bologna striker more as a second striker and could require the purchase of a real number 9.
