The winger, part of the Swedish national team in a today’s press conference commented this rumors openly expressing his desire to try a new adventure. “AC Milan have just started a very interesting project, they are investing a lot and want to quickly rejoin the European football elite. Currently i am focused in the next match with the national team. I have just ended a quite positive season with Leipzig. My agent will deal with the rest“. High praise for the rossoneri who have identified Forsberg as the perfect winger for manager Montella’s game.
RB Leipzig finished Bundesliga in second place and will play Champions League next season, a competition out of reach for Milan. But Forsberg does not consider the lack of Champions League football as a problem. in an interview released for Expressen the 25 year old declared: “I don’t considered it to be an important factor“. Strong words and a clear statement that should be seen as extra motivation by Fassone. A few days ago it was his agent who confirmed that Emil Forsberg was looking for a new adventure. The left winger is well known for his quickness and agility allowing him to glide past players with such ease, it appears he’s the fastest player on the pitch. His ability to create from the wing separates him from a lot of modern wingers in football. This special mix of skills makes the Swede an incredibly versatile player. Even though the rossoneri have reached an agreement with Lazio for Keita the player prefers to join Juventus. Sports director Mirabelli does not intend to wait any more and is considering other solutions.
