AC Milan's center forward goal is difficult to achieve, and three candidates have been shortlisted!
It's no news that Milan are keeping an eye on Zirkze, not long ago when the Bologna striker kicked the 10-finger pass at the San Siro with Maignan in charge. So far, he has made 23 appearances for the team, starting 20 games, contributing nine goals and four assists. Zirkze trained at Feyenoord from a young age and entered Munich at an early age as a regular player. However, he was unable to establish himself in the team due to the fierce competition between the teams, so he was loaned to Parma and then Anderlecht.
Before the summer of 2022, he moved to Bologna for £8.5 million, while Bayern Munich also spent £40 million on Bologna and compensated 50% of what they received when they were sold. Zirkze was not in great form in his first season in the Apennines, he was also terrible, with two goals and two assists. Fortunately, Motta has developed this style of play for him, which has allowed him to make a big leap forward this season. AC Milan managers Moncada and Frani have high praise for the Dutch striker's ability and believe he can be a big boost in attack. But because of his excellent performance this season, Zirkze's ** was fired to 30 million euros. Milan paid a big price to sign him. Although Bologna have no objection to allowing Zirkze to enter the transfer market, they will also have to pay a price for them, as they will get a share of the deal in the form of an agreement with Bayern Munich. According to Italian sources, the Bologna player offered 60 million euros. Milan want to reduce their capital expenditure by exchanging Saalmakles. The Belgian has spent his loan at Bologna and has made 16 appearances for the club and has played a key role as a member of the heart of the midfield.
But this is not an easy task, because Zirkze has no shortage of people who pursue him. AC Milan certainly won't give up any of the right moments to buy the striker if they lose their top priority, and with Frenchman Olivier Giroud 37 years old and a new contract yet to be determined, the star is likely to go to the MLS to continue his career. Milan's scouts also have three other players on this list, Gimenez for Feyenoord FC, Jonathan David for Lille FC and Seske for RB Leipzig. The cost and difficulty of this team is high, even surpassing Bologna's signing of Zirkze, but both men will need to adapt to the pace of the new season as soon as possible. Gimenez, a 22-year-old player from Mexico and Italy, has been outstanding in the Netherlands, scoring a goal in less than 90 minutes. Canadian star David has been on the radar of AC Milan for a long time, and his quality has long been known to everyone. Milan's most popular striker is Sesko from Leipzig, who has enough experience and quality to be a sentinel.
