Milan intend to hire Conrad Harder. The Italians have made an offer of 25 million euros for the 20-year-old Dane. However, Rui Borges' pupil is not the only striker on the Italian emblem's radar, which is also trying to negotiate with Victor Boniface from Bayer Leverkusen.

The revelation was advanced by Gazzetta dello Sport on Wednesday, August 20. Igle Tare, the sports director of the rossoneri emblem, has also offered a proposal of five million euros for the loan of the Nigerian striker and an additional 28 million euros as a purchase option.

Conrad Harder is seen as an alternative solution to the German striker and has age on his side, as he is four years younger, in addition to having a lower acquisition and salary cost. On the other hand, Boniface's history of several injuries makes Milan somewhat reluctant to make a definitive signing.

Meanwhile, the Lions' advanced player has also been linked to Fiorentina, Leipzig, and Rennes. However, as our Journal reported, in Exclusive, the player does not plan to change teams in this market window and wants to cement his place in the starting eleven.

This season, with Sporting's jersey, Conrad Harder - valued at 24 million euros - has participated in three games. The green and white team's striker was a starting option in the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira, playing 68 minutes against Benfica, and came off the bench in the 84th minute against Casa Pia and in the 73rd minute against Arouca.
