Milan on Kim and Disasi. Nkunku at Fenerbahçe? Low offer

The priority always remains the search for a defender to complete the department, but Milan’s market is also linked to possible exits. In this sense, the hot name always remains that of Christopher Nkunku, for whom Fenerbahçe has been pressing for days, on the recommendation of Domenico Tedesco, the Turkish coach whom the Frenchman already had at Leipzig, perhaps in the best moment of his career. From Istanbul, however, the figure that would allow Milan not to record a capital loss in the balance sheet has not yet been reached. How much are we talking about? At least 33 million euros, having paid the Frenchman to Chelsea 37 as a fixed base just a few months ago. Furthermore, Nkunku himself does not seem very convinced about leaving Milan. Chris, who in the last match in which he took to the pitch – against Verona on 28 December – scored his first brace in the Rossoneri shirt, breaking a long drought since scoring in the Italian Cup against Lecce at the end of September, wants to play his chances at Milan.

If the French striker were to pack his bags, obviously the hunt for a replacement would begin in Via Aldo Rossi, given that Santiago Gimenez will be out for between three and four months, as revealed by Massimiliano Allegri before the trip to Cagliari. It is difficult, however, to go for a pure center forward, after the arrival of Füllkrug. The profile sought would be more similar to that of Nkunku himself: a second striker capable of playing as a first striker. At the moment, however, the Frenchman is still in his place. As well as Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who Lazio likes, but Allegri considers very important for the team. The Englishman, despite Sarri’s court, is not on the market. And in any case, the salary of 4 million net per season would significantly complicate any negotiations to bring him to Rome.

With no exits, in Casa Milan at the moment we are therefore thinking about the defender at zero or almost zero cost. The objective is to be able to find an international level center back who can leave his current club on loan, preferably with a past in Serie A. The identikit perfectly represents that of the Korean Kim, victorious in Italy with Napoli and then immediately migrated to Germany, to Bayern Munich. It would be the ideal addition, but for now the Germans are not so open to selling him. And, above all, Kim earns a disproportionate amount: 9 million euros net per year. Even on loan, he would need a hand from Bayern to cover his salary. In short, everything is very complicated today, although the Korean could look favorably on a return to our championship. This is why alternative and slightly more “simple” paths remain alive, such as the one that leads to Axel Disasi of Chelsea (more than Süle of Dortmund). The Frenchman is out of the squad in London and already moved on loan last winter, going to Aston Villa. The relations between Milan and the Blues are excellent and if the Rossoneri managers wanted to press on the accelerator, the deal would be more than possible. But, as reiterated by Igli Tare before the match against Cagliari, the Devil is not in such a hurry. Allegri in Sardinia was able to do without Gabbia and Pavlovic, two starters out of three. There will be a purchase, but the current situation is not seen as an absolute emergency.
