Medicals fixed, personal terms agreed: AC Milan and EPL team has reached agreement for player
Daniele Longo has reported that the Rossoneri are keen to sell the Belgian this summer and he seems set to depart too. The club’s asking price for the former Scudetto winner is at €20 million and there is mounting interest from the Premier League as things stand.
Saelemaekers himself is convinced that his spell at Milan is over and the Rossoneri recently held talks with West Ham regarding a potential move. Talks were also held with Leicester City, but Nottingham Forest and Ipswich Town are also interested parties.
Potential offers for the winger could arrive next week and while Juventus do appreciate the Belgian, they haven’t made any concrete contact or offer for him. Thiago Motta is a big admirer of him from his time at Bologna and he is still interested in a potential move.
Milan duo to miss Rapid Wien friendly with exits now imminent
The AC Milan squad will soon depart for Austria ahead of this evening’s friendly against Rapid Wien, but a report has revealed that they will be two men down.
The team will take off from Malpensa Airport soon in the direction of Vienna in view of the first summer friendly scheduled for today at 17:30 CEST at the Allianz Stadion against Rapid Wien.
According to what MilanNews are reporting, both Jan-Carlo Simic and Luka Romero will not be on the plane carrying the squad and in both cases it is because they are close to sealing moves away.
Fabrizio Romano reported last night that a move to Anderlecht is imminent for Simic, and the Belgian club will pay €3m while Milan will retain a 20% sell-on clause.
Meanwhile, Romero is set for a return to LaLiga where he spent the second half of last season on loan at Almeria. This time he will join Deportivo Alaves on an initial loan deal, but it includes an option to buy.
In order to prevent injuries and perhaps to get the final few details sorted in each of the respective operations, the centre-back and the winger will remain at home and will play no part in this evening’s game.
