This summer, several Milan players are anticipated to leave.
AC Milan faces a critical summer as they attempt to appoint a head coach and assemble a squad capable of immediately responding to Inter’s 20th Scudetto victory.
According to Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews), there is a lot of conversation about the incoming market and the players that could join to galvanise the group, with a focus on the striker who will be bought. However, some major departures will occur, making some room in the pay budget but also creating gaps that must be filled.
According to the article, Olivier Giroud will leave when his contract expires (to join Los Angeles FC in the MLS), while Antonio Mirante, Simon Kjaer, and Mattia Caldara will also leave for free. Luka Jovic’s departure is described as ‘likely’ despite the fact that he has nine goals and arrived on a free transfer, while Yacine Adli’s departure is described as ‘possible’ despite the fact that he has played a larger role in recent months.
As for major stars like Maignan and Theo Hernandez, who have many fans all throughout Europe, they will only go if genuinely unbelievable bids emerge at Casa Milan, as witnessed with the sale of Sandro Tonali to Newcastle.
