Mercato Milan: Jack Wilshere & Memphis Depay, the situation
Jack Wilshere and Memphis Depay are two of AC Milan’s most ambitious transfer targets for the summer but how realistic are they?
AC Milan overcame the last obstacle before the international break beating Chievo 3-2. Now the Rossoneri can recharge batteries before the next Serie A challenge with Juventus. AC Milan’s management will use the next two weeks to concentrate on the transfer market and advance contracts with several targets. In recent days, the red and blacks has tested the ground for Arsenal’s Jack Wilshere, taking advantage of the double encounter with London club.
The player’s economic demands are very high, but on the other hand his expiring contract is a tempting factor because the club will not need to invest any euros to snatch him from Arsenal. According to reports by MilanNews.it negotiations are very complicated, Wilshere is admired o lot by coach Gattuso and the management but they would have to anticipate the competition, in particular there are several English clubs that have set their sights on the player and he would have no problem staying in Premier League. The operation remains difficult.
Memphis Depay is another player of interested for the Rossoneri. Contacts between parties have started for some time and recently chief scout Luxoro was in France to watch him closely during for several games. He is one of the targets of the next summer transfer window but probably not the first real goal. The red and blacks like him but Depay could cost a lot, he has a contract with Lyon till 2021. The Dutch winger would be a reinforcement of international caliber but at the moment Milan is conducting only inquiries, the club will have to wait UEFA’s decision on the Settlement Agreement before defining an exact transfer budget .
