Winter Mercato - 2026
#21
Around 20 games left in our season, only Serie A of course. As if that's enough to judge an option, even if Fullkrug starts all of them it's not imo. West Ham are either very desperate or very generous.
#22
According to some sources we are also in talks with Partizan Belgrade for their 18 year old striker Andrej Kostic.
#23
Oddly, I am okay with Fullkrug deal but not so much with Kostic.

Fullkrug is not any flashy option, but he has the quality that Allegri looks for and this team desperate needs. I am not sure why we are looking at Kostic unless he is a generational talent and/or we give up on Camarda.
#24
Why even worry about Kostic? It's not a first team teanfser. Chances are he won't make a single first team appearance for anothe 2 years. Obviously he's a talented young player. But It's a transfer similar to Lazetic or Odogu. These are gamble type transfers on young players. If they work out, you could hit the jackpot. If not, consider it "gamble money". The likes of Real Madrid and Chelsea do this with tens of millions every year. Milan on the ither hand is in the 4-8m range.

Don't really care about money, wish we could spend better, "more" is nice but I care less and less.
In this sense I don't want to spend on Lazetic types, little or not. I am not claiming that scouting newsletters and sites are the bible or anything but very few we sign or are rumoured - actually close to zero (even our own Camarda) - appear high on young talent lists. Kostic also, haven't checked deeply, but small search comes up with little.

Cheer up, guys.
Let's welcome Bundesliga 2022-2023 co topgoalscorer: Fullkrug!
And who is the other co topgoalscorer: Nkunku!

What a pair, let's destroy Bundesliga 2023-2024!

Moncada is a huge problem. Was he ever a good scout or just pulled wool over our eyes?

Has a very high failure rate and apart from Thiaw none have even made any good money. Has unearthed no new talents while other clubs have better scouting networks and sign up the highly rated youngsters.

Origi officially leaves Milan.

Longo: Giorgio Furlani was not convinced about signing Nkunku for €38m, because he said “it’s too high as an investment, we’ve already done Jashari”. For Milan, the risk of making two €40m purchases was too high.

Moncada is a pretender. He’s terrible at everything he does. Our team is just in so much disarray that it will take new ownership to get us out of this mess. 

The board’s idea is to sign youngsters and develop them so they turn a nice profit. Well, 1 - Furlani didn’t even make even close to as much as he could have for Tijiani. IMO, the transfer fee if all the targets are met (72 million I think) should have been the guaranteed and then include add ons for more. 2 - you can’t buy all these youngsters and expect them to develop in Serie C with an equally chaotic system in Futuro. Kirovski needs to leave too as he isn’t the right guy for European football. Had Abate stayed, Camarda, Liberali and Zeroli would be with the first team right now.

The price for taking Fullkrug permanently is just 5m, same as Kostic.
