January last year cost us because we signed Mandzukic and Meite.
January this year because we signed no one.
According to what is being reported by journalist Rudy Galetti on Twitter, Bakayoko is no longer playing not only due to his poor performances when called upon by Pioli, but above all because of a stipulation in his loan deal from Chelsea.
Bakayoko rejoined Milan in the summer via the formula of a two-year loan with option to buy but so far he has struggled to show that he can provide reliable depth and cover, having made some mistakes and overall just not finding the right rhythm.
The journalist adds that the option to buy can actually become an obligation to buy, and it is linked to the number of appearances that the former Monaco man makes. At the moment Milan don’t want to keep the player, so they are not playing him.
Another pointless signing when depth is already minimal.
I think you dont understand. Article is saying we wont sign him. Bakayoko was signed for squad depth on a low risk deal. Now we only pay some renting money, not the option/obligation to buy.
Bakayoko did very well in his first loan spell here but was a disaster this season. Pobega to replace him i think.

Id rather be playing Pobega over Bakayoko. He can go.. I also don't see him as happy and prosperous with the team mates in his posts etc. He's clearly not happy that he's not been playing but hey we have a real project in motion now unlike his last spell here.

Saladmaker is good nickname for him. Pretty suitable. Loan him away and sign a real RW. This wasnt done previous summer and this winter. Unbelievable. I dont get it. How much have we saved for not making this move? Has it made us a rich club? Sacrificed for what exactly?
Berardi with 10 goals and 10 assists so far this season.
But people still don't want him ? I read he was close to Fiorentina and Atlanta.
Worth the risk and surely better than Saladmaker, Samy etc
Raspadori +Berardi would be sweet. Sassuolo usually want cash but Saladmaker, Lazetic on loan and some cash could be the way to try to tempt them.
*edit Berardi is also the only player in the Top 5 league's to currently have this achievement.
I love to see Berardi at Milan, but he is quite injury-prone and the price is not cheap.
