AC Milan and Atletico Madrid are not the best of friends after the Rossoneri convinced Alvaro Morata to leave Spain, triggering the €13m release clause in his contract. By the looks of it, the Spaniards are out for revenge.
Morata appeared destined to remain at Atletico Madrid despite the low release clause, having confirmed his love for the club. However, then Zlatan Ibrahimovic came along and managed to change his mind, fast forward to Milan announcing the signing on Friday.
As stated by BILD this morning, cited by PianetaMilan, Diego Simeone is a huge admirer of Niclas Fullkrug and could prompt Atleti to pay a whopping €30m for his services. This would certainly be a big blow for Milan, who already have an agreement with the player.
It doesn’t end there, however, as it was also reported earlier today that the Spanish side have enquired about Milan’s No.1 defensive target Strahinja Pavlovic. In short, Milan and Atletico Madrid could be in for a proper mercato battle this summer.
In the past, Atletico had also expressed an interest in Monaco’s Youssouf Fofana, but he has agreed to join Milan and the agreement is only a matter of time.
