Summer Mercato - 2025

[nefremo]

Other than outgoing players, I think that's it for us. And that's fine. Let's get to January and see where we are. I hoped we would have gone for quality over quantity. And although we signed some quality players, we stretched the budget by buying a lot of quantity as well. 

Let's see if we manage to offload Adli and Bennacer, as well as rescind Origi's contract.

Turkish league allegedly has at least one more week until the market closes. Let's hope that we get rid of all three of them, especially Bennacer and Origi. If I am not mistaken, both are among the top 3 (or 5) earners in Milan, after only Leao (barring some of the new signees this summer).

Bennacer's contract is for 2 more years (expires June 2027). So I think we have a very good chance of getting rid of him. Since we can even do it on a loan. It would be disastrous if he was frozen out all season. Both for him, and for Milan. 

Adli on the other hand has a contract until next summer. So for him, it has to be a sale, otherwise he walks for free. However, we are in a very weak negotiating position because we'd only be able to sell in those 2 open markets (Turkey and S.Arabia). I know Adli seems like a really nice guy, but it makes you wonder, is he actually wanting to run down his contract and get himself a bigger salary as a free agent? Risky business, if so. But tou never know. 

Origi is Origi. At this point, it's just a matter of whether or not we can save a mil or two by negotiating an early contract termination. I' very interested to see who (if anyone) wpuld give him a contract after this.

Schira: Origi continues to receive his full €4.5M salary from Milan, which he also collected last season. Despite early progress in talks over terminating his contract with a 50% settlement, negotiations have stalled again.

May as well use him as reserve to Gimenez as have nobody else...

He is probably not even remotely close to the fitness level needed to play at this level. He should stay far away. Just pay him and forget him, the damage has been done.

"AC Milan are considering the opportunity to sign free agent Takehiro Tomiyasu."

[nefremo]

Tomiyasu didn't play a single minute of football last year. No point. Just stay as we are

Just out of curiosity, not saying I support signing him but can we still sign free agents and they can play before January? I was never clear how this works lol

[Aficio]

If we put the new players in to a team, we have this:

--------------------------------------------------P. Terraciano-------------------------------------------------
----Athekame----------------------De Winter----------------Odogu------------------------Estupiñán----
-----------------------Ricci-------------------------Modric-------------------Jashari-------------------------
--------------------------------Saelemaekers------------------Rabiot----------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------Nkunku----------------------------------------------------

Strenghs and weaknesses same as the transfer rating.

Yes, you can sign and register them anytime. Not sure if there is limit about number of them, though.
