Swap Saelemaekers with Chiesa gaining momentum. Chiesa needs to lower his demands though.


I like the idea. Both need new loves after a long time suffering from injuries.
And Milan could have one good enough Italian player.
Brescianini was on his way to Napoli, but the deal collapsed as Napoli tried to change the terms of the transfer late on. He even did his medicals at Napoli this morning, but now it's being reported that he is going to Atalanta instead as they outbid Napoli. So even more money for us, the fee is €13-14m which gives us €6.5-7m as we hold a 50% resale clause.
Thats a great deal for us.

I don't remember Brescianni to be that good to be playing in Napoli/Atalanta but yeah Gasperini would turn him into prime Rodri
Forza Diavolo ale!!!
Fonseca after the match
"Obviously, some players will need to exit. We are seeing what the best solution for Kalulu would be"
"Market in entry? We are only missing one player in the midfield, everyone knows that player is Fofana"

Looks like Fofana is a done deal/formality.

That would be too bad if it ended there, would have really liked to somehow take Chiesa away from Juve. Thing is, Saelemakers genuinely did not put a single foot wrong in todays match. Guy played impressively, but we all know in the real season that could change real fast...
I think after fonseca’s declarations we can be sure that we wont buy a striker, Jovic will be the backup.
Also saelemaekers will stay, so that probably also means no Chiesa.
And Fonseca want us to sign Fofana!

Fofana made those comments after our match last night? [emoji23]


Anyway, about Salaemakers - problem is he's just mehh player. I mean, he does these little cute things here and there, now and then. Maybe even appear to be good in a game. But he's hardly effective in attacking. Or even defending when playing at RB or RWB. And like you said, everything can change anytime and he's back to that frustrating player we all know.

He's just a random player, someone to fill out the positions. He's not that player you look at in your attack line and go, "oh yeah, we have Salaemakers there, we gonna kill them or I'm expecting something exciting on that flank"

So why keep him? Probably for depth, nothing more than that. There's a reason Bologna aren't interested in buying him, or even making any effort to renew his loan.

I say cash in on him (or swap) if there's any opportunity.

That extra 6-7M from Brescianni must be enough to finance the move. Saelemaekers is def a good player with good work rate but cant see anyone preferring him over Chiesa

Dybala also on the market. Roma wants him out.
Anyone?

I wouldnt mind him, he would be surplus and he would not be always fit, but when available he is class. Still had good stats. He could be an extra weapon in a scudetto push. He is much better than chuck or saelemaekers.

I’d prefer him over Tammy. He could play behind Morata and put Pulisic back at RW. If we could swap saelemakers for Chiesa, and sign Fofana and Dybala, we would be pretty dangerous. That’s a PlayStation dream though.
