DBasia.news – AC Milan has made Chelsea midfielder Hakim Ziyech a target in the 2021 summer transfer market. Unfortunately, now the Rossoneri’s chances of securing the ex-Ajaz Amsterdam have dwindled.
Ahead of the close of the transfer market, AC Milan wants to continue to strengthen itself. Two Milan transfer frontmen, Frederic Massara and Paolo Maldini, are looking for a playmaker to complete Stafano Pioli’s squad.
Milan’s needs are increasingly pressing because the player who played this role last season, Hakan Calhanoglu, left for Inter Milan. The Turkish national team midfielder left on a free transfer.
Calciomercato reports, the player who is Milan’s main target is Hakim Ziyech. Although it has not made an official offer to Chelsea, Il Diavolo Rosso has contacted the player’s agent.
Milan want to know the chances of getting Ziyech this summer. However, Milan can only afford a loan proposal plus a ransom option.
However, Milan’s scenario is in danger of failing. The reason, Chelsea coach, Thomas Tuchel, did not allow the club to release Hakim Ziyech.
The coach who brought Chelsea to the Champions League title wanted to give Ziyech more opportunities. Tuchel showed it when Chelsea faced Villarreal in the European Super Cup final. The Moroccan midfielder answered with a score of one goal.
Milan began to turn their eyes to CSKA Moscow midfielder, Nikola Vlasic. Reportedly, the 23-year-old is interested in defending the Rossoneri banner this season.
However, Milan’s money is still not enough to bring Vlasic to the San Siro. CSKA Moscow set a price of 35 million euros for the Croatian national team player.
