Juventus offer two players to AC Milan
Agent Alessandro Lucci has offered AC Milan the possibility to purchase two Juventus players this summer.
MILAN TRANSFER NEWS – So far AC Milan have announced only two signings. Theo Hernandez and Rade Krunic are the first players purchased by Maldini and Boban in their new adventure as head of the Rossoneri management. Ismael Bennacer will surely be the third signing after the end of Africa’s Cup of Nations.
The Rossoneri are very active on the transfer market with many agents arriving daily at Casa Milan. Alessandro Lucci, in the company of former club legend Serginho, has visited Casa Milan more than any other agent. Lucci represents two Milan players, Davide Calabria and Suso, but his visits have been of another nature.
Journalist Carlo Pellegatti reveals that the motive behind Lucci’s frequent visits has been Juventus. Juventus have offered Mattia Perin and Juan Cuadrado to AC Milan. Both players are clients of Alessandro Lucci. Unlike what other media have reported, Perin and Cuadrado are not part of a bid to sign Milan star Suso in a swap deal.
Perin aims to play with Italy in the upcoming European Champions. He wants more play time and will certainly leave Juventus this summer after Buffon’s return. However, AC Milan are not interested in him. Gigio Donnarumma will likely stay at Milan so the Rossoneri have no need of signing another goalkeeper.
AC Milan have also rejected the opportunity to purchase Juan Cuadrado. Coach Marco Giampaolo will play with a 4-3-1-2 game system this year so there is no need to sign additional wingers. Furthermore, the age of Cuadrado, 31-years-old, makes him an unsuitable player for Elliot’s project. The club will make important investments but only for players under 25.
