Milan has officially begun the second part of its pre-season with the tour in the United States, which will have its first major act today at midnight with the friendly between the Rossoneri and Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City. Paulo Fonseca, however, will present himself to the challenge with a still very reduced squad, due to the extended holidays for those returning from the national teams and the transfer market that has brought only Alvaro Morata.
Furlani’s words
According to Giorgio Furlani, the club’s CEO, there is no rush: “Last summer – he explained in a press conference – we had to completely review the squad because it wasn’t what we wanted. This summer is different. We are more tactical and more patient and we are in no rush. We signed our number nine who was an important addition, for the rest we won’t say specific names, we are looking at many players and potential purchases, the market ends at the end of August and we have a lot of time”.
The expected blows
There is no rush means that the purchases will arrive, probably not immediately, but they will arrive. Strahinja Pavlovic and Emerson Royal can be closed by the Rossoneri club that can count on the will of both to move to the Rossoneri. But from via Aldo Rossi they are not giving up on Youssuf Fofana either, even if Monaco’s resistance will be more difficult to bend. Then there will be the other striker to close, with Fullkrug always monitored.
