The Milan he needs to rediscover the old certainties undermined by the last two draws against Salernitana and Udinese. Pioli’s goal is to improve the score obtained last season, then a hand will come from the summer transfer market to raise the competitiveness of the squad. And in this sense we must read the great work that Maldini and Massara are carrying out with Lille on Sven Botman. The strategy is that of close the deal before the end of the championship to protect himself from competition from a Newcastle which has no intention of raising the white flag.
BETWEEN BACKSCENE AND STRATEGY – Amanda Staveleythe British financier operating in Newcastle’s new Saudi Arabian company, exclusively told The Athletic that the Dutch defender would have liked to sign at all costs for the Magpies in January. A strong statement that is a manifesto to the intentions of one of the richest clubs in the world. Milan, for their part, are very optimistic because they know they have earned pole. An agreement in principle with Botman’s agents is already in place, now we need the definitive agreement with Lille which can reach a figure close to 35 million (including bonuses).
