Milan on Fullkrug: the negotiation with Aston Villa and the costs

The center forward who goes into space is of no interest. The point here is to understand whether Milan can take the center forward who has the space. Niclas Fullkrug is famous for a gap between his teeth – not toothpaste advertising teeth – and for this reason he is called Lücke, which in German means “empty”, “space”. Fullkrug is one of the options for Milan’s attack, which is looking for a striker on loan for January and is also studying Zirkzee. A physical attacker.

Fullkrug is a candidate because he is playing little at West Ham: in the Premier League he started 5 out of 15 games, came on three more times, and played just 28 minutes in the last two months. Clearly stated: he wants to change teams. Look for something else, because the move to England in the summer of 2024 did not go well. So why not start again? Milan will think about it, Fullkrug will not be the first option but, in a complex market like the one in January, the name is to be considered. He can leave on loan for six months and see if Italy is for him, even if West Ham paid him around thirty million just sixteen months ago and there is no shortage of suitors in Germany.

fullkrug, the crossroads with milan

Fullkrug has clear features. Speciality, the header: excluding penalties, he has thus scored 6 of his last 10 goals. Clearly, it would be something new for Milan and the adaptation to Italy would have to be tested because Fullkrug had only played in Germany until last summer. Until 2017, when he was already 24 years old, he was in the German Serie B. However, between 2021 and 2024 it grew vertically. He scored 19 goals in the 2.Bundesliga for Werder, then 16 goals in the Bundesliga. The transfer to Dortmund changed his dimension: in 2023-24 he scored 15 goals of the season, including the 1-0 against PSG in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final. In the final, against Real, he remained on the pitch for 90 minutes. In all this, one advantage: he knows how to change games by coming off the bench. In his career he celebrated twice at the World Cup and twice at the European Championship as a substitute. Ah, just in case, some bad memories for the Milan fans should be taken into account. Fullkrug was a starter in Borussia who won at San Siro on 28 November 2023 in the key match of the Champions League group, from which Milan were eliminated. Bynow-Gittens’ 1-2 goal was born from a sharp touch with his right foot: his.
