There is a possible candidate circulating to strengthen the Rossoneri defense in the Milan transfer market, the player in question is very interesting and has impressive qualities.
The Milan transfer market For a few days now he has been familiar with several names who could become protagonists of concrete negotiations. After the farewell with Stefano Pioli, and the appointment of Paulo Fonseca as the next coach (the official announcement should arrive on Thursday 13 June, ed.) several changes are also expected regarding the current squad.
In the Milan transfer market so far the exits have been the protagonists. Giroud, Mirante and Kjaer they say goodbye to everyone and leave, their contracts expire on June 30th and as for the Frenchman, an agreement has already been signed with Los Angeles FC, the team where Giorgio Chiellini works as a technical collaborator. And where there is also goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, his compatriot.
Both outgoing and incoming we will see several new names and we will focus in particular on young people. There is one name in particular that Paulo Fonseca seems to like. The trend of fishing abroad continues instead of focusing on elements grown in our championship, Camarda aside.
And in this sense, a profile has emerged that Milan seems to like a lot. The Rossoneri management will try to get to this player, who could also give a lot in the future.
Milan transfer market, a Portuguese for Fonseca
It will not be a coincidence if, with Fonseca as the new coach, a Portuguese player could arrive to fill out the backlog. The potential candidate for defense is Diogo Leite, playing for Union Berlinborn in 1999 and which arrived in Germany in 2022.
Also thanks to the last, mediocre championship of the Berliners, Diogo Leite would have expressed his desire for a change of scenery. The problem is that the Germans they value it at least 20 million euros. A sum that Milan has no intention of spending at all.
The former Porto player has important physical resources. We are talking about a cuirassier 1.90 cm tall, left footed, and with a purely central defense role. Diogo Leite would come with not exactly great credentials. He is not part of the Portuguese national team, so to speak.
But he certainly doesn’t lack the qualities to be able to make the big leap and succeed in establishing himself in an absolute top club like Milan. Which in fact would be the strongest team in which he would play in his career, in the event that his purchase should be successful.
To favor the inclusion of Diogo Leite in the locker room finally there would be compatriot Rafa Leaoas well as obviously the new coach, Paulo Fonseca. Who would sign a two-year contract at around 3.5 million euros per season. For the attack, to fill the void left by Giroud’s departure there should be Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna. The 23-year-old, somewhat surprisingly, was not called up by the Netherlands for Euro 2024.
