Milan have chosen Joshua Zirkzee, who wants to stay in Italy and fell in love with San Siro when he saw it up close during the Milanese evenings last season. He reported it this morning La Gazzetta dello Sport which explains that the white smoke hasn’t happened yet, but There is optimism in the Rossoneri house that the deal will eventually go through.
IT’S ABOUT COMMISSIONS – There is one last step to do which concerns the commissions requested by the Dutchman’s agent, Kia Joorabchian, which asks for 15 million euros. Milan, for his part, has no intention of giving him this amount and for this reason the parties are negotiating to reduce the commissions. This is a last tug of war before arriving at the white smoke long awaited by AC Milan fans who would be very excited to see a player like Zirkzee on the pitch.
A MATTER OF DAYS – The hope in via Aldo Rossi, where they are ready to pay the 40 million euro release clause to Bologna, is that it’s all just a matter of days because the wishes of Milan and the player are very clear. Obviously at the Rossoneri, where they know very well how important it is to quickly find the new striker on which to build next season’s team, they also keep other leads alive, such as the one that leads to Romelu Lukaku, a name that could get hot if things go wrong for Zikzee. But at Casa Milan they made their choice some time ago and they want to bet everything on Joshua.
