Summer mercato 2020
Happy about the Kjaer news. We are not going to find another CB of his quality and experience for 3.5mil. Even if he is kept as a back up, that's a great deal.

hey, did you notice Napoli getting Osimhen despite not being UCL? This shows how hollow our management is. Dodgy

Signing Emerson who belongs to Barcelona but loaned to Real Betis is complicated. Milan wants to offer a loan deal with an option to buy while Barcelona wants to sell and add a buy-back clause. (Simone Cristao - Radio Rossonero)

Milan joins the race for Valencia's Ferran Torres as they ask about his situation. There is already a tough competition for the player's signature from Real Madrid, Man City, Man United, Juventus, and Borussia Dortmund.
The Spanish winger has a release clause of 100M€. (Marca)

Milan target Victor Osimhen completes Napoli for reportedly 67M pound move, medicals scheduled on Thursday. 

100 million euros (9 goals in 95 games as a winger mainly I think), 67 million pounds (2289 min 13 goals at Lille compared to 1295 8 for Leao at Lille)
Joke of a market. I am not interested in participating in these numbers.

Our management would be stupid to use close to 100% of our transfer budget on one player who has only one, maybe two, season on a decent level behind him. Of course he might succeed at Napoli, but there's no way we could/should take a risk like that now. We need more.
Tonali benched vs Atalanta. Are they scared that he'll play like crap and thus his price tag will fall even further down? Big Grin

On Osimhen...i agree that this is not a risk worth taking for us at the moment. Hopefully we'll be at a position a few years from now where we are only signing 1-2 players a summer and can blow our entire budget on that. But right now, we need 4-5 quality starters so we need to be better with the way we dish out cash.

For the reported 80mil Euros, we can add some serious quality. Depay for example has had multiple great seasons in France and can probably be bought for like 30mil. Szoboszlai who seems to be very well liked by Rangnick is going for 25mil. That leaves another 25mil.
Ahhhh... I was not talking about signing Osimhen. It was a symbolic expression how Napoli is signing top rated player despite not being in fray for UCL compare to Milan.
Forza Diavolo ale!!!
What the fuck lineup was that from Brescia, Defender playing as a Midfielder. Brescia defense without Cistana looks shit.

Not sure I understand why Osimhen is considered a top player. What has he done so far? Talented yes, top no.

They have given up, they're relegated anyway.

Napoli has beaten a lot of top clubs for his signature. Sleepy
