Summer Mercato 2022
Rudy Galetti: I've received some confirming insight that Gareth Bale is packing his bags to move to AC Milan this summer. The goal of the next transfer window for the Rossoneri will be to add experience and exposure to the side.

Seriously Bale?? lol

I would take Bale if we send back Diaz and end any association for Asensio.  Icon_lol2

Their nationality was never the problem. Just like any other nationality, we have to sign the right players. If they're Spanish, Ukrainian, Dutch or Colombian doesn't matter much.

I'm pretty sure Sergio Ramos, Raul, Iniesta, Xavi and even Torres at their peak would have done well at Milan. Castillejo, Jose Mari, Javi Moreno, Diaz and the likes? Not so much...

Pellegri
Bakayoko
Ballo Toure
Messias

Florenzi so-so

Cash will have to be spent especially in attack which is non-existent currently.

Do you know that these signings are actually all (paid)loans and most of them will be send back without buying them. We had limited budget and spend all budget on Maignan, Tomori and tonali. We are not PSG who have unlimited budget.
For this transfer summer I say, leave botman and spend all in attack!!!

Sure, we had budgetary issues, but that still doesn't excuse every signing being a massive failure. If we never properly scouted and identified these players as right fits, then we shouldn't sign them even on loan. Maldini has overall done a good job running the team. But a more productive mercato last summer would've resulted in a scudetto this year.
The transfers were actually paid decent money on were all spot on! The others were all gambles for no money or low risk. Offcourse mistakes were made, but overall is was a good market with signing Maignan, Tomori and Tonali. 3 starters.
If we can sign the same quality but this time in attack this summer scudetto is ours next season!
Rudy Galetti is usually pretty accurate. Kinda worries me that we might be signing Bale I don't think he's the right player for us but anyway
Milan are expected to terminate the loan of Tiemoue Bakayoko early.

Calciomercato.com report Bakayoko’s last match with Milan was back on January 17 in the 2-1 defeat against Spezia at San Siro, and since that day Stefano Pioli has not used him even once.

Bakayoko returned to Milan last summer on a two-year loan with an option to buy for €15m which becomes an obligation under certain conditions: 15 appearances of at least 45 minutes in 2022-23.
