Milan Opens Negotiations with Lecce to Discuss Transfers of Four Different Players

DBasia.news – AC Milan technical director Paolo Maldini has reportedly opened negotiations with Lecce regarding the possibility of transferring four different players ahead of the mercato this summer.

As SempreMilan points out, the Rossoneri do not intend to just sign big names that cost a fortune and CEO Ivan Gazidis is a specialist in capturing unknown talents, but can be developed into top players like Pierre Kalulu.

For this reason, the Serie A giants are exploring the Serie B market by looking for proven players to strengthen Stefano Pioli’s squad.

The arrival of Ismael Bennacer and Rade Krunic when Empoli was relegated and Junior Messias was a clear example under the Elliott Management era.

As a result, Maldini also opened negotiations with Lecce to plan a transfer. Alessandro Plizzarri who is currently on loan is in danger of being sold permanently because the player wants to play continuously and the separation of Gianluigi Donnarumma did not change his situation at the San Siro.

Mike Maignan is the main starter, so for products that have dropped out of the club’s academy, a transfer there is more likely.

In addition to the Plizzari transfer, Il Diavolo also wants to loan Marko Lazetic to the Salento club without a purchase option. Instead, Maldini is likely to invest in two very impressive talents, namely Pablo Rodriguez (20-year-old striker) and 22-year-old midfielder Morten Hjulmand.

Lecce want a definite sale to raise funds, but Milan could start by offering a loan deal for the star duo with a purchase obligation under certain conditions.
