Romano: Man Utd could add insult to injury as Dutch duo fade for Milan | OneFootball

AC Milan have been linked with Mats Wieffer and Joshua Zirkzee this summer as they look to reinforce both the midfield and the attack. However, the former’s move to Brighton has been made official and Man Utd are on the striker, a report claims.

Wieffer was mentioned as one of the key midfield targets just a couple of weeks ago and Milan even opened talks. However, Brighton announced the signing of the 24-year-old yesterday (for around €30m) and the Rossoneri will now have to shift focus to Monaco’s Youssouf Fofana.

According to Fabrizio Romano, another Dutch target could fade for Milan as Man Utd have held new talks with Zirkzee’s agent to discuss the salary and commission. Erik ten Hag has been on the phone with the striker several times and the English side will soon make a final decision.

Milan are still in the race but for each day that passes, it’s getting more and more difficult. Alvaro Morata has now emerged as another target of the Rossoneri, willing to pay his release clause, and it remains to be seen what the Spaniard’s response will be.

The pre-season will start next week and as things stand, Paulo Fonseca will rely on Lorenzo Colombo and Francesco Camarda for the first training sessions.
