According to BD Cricket’s latest updates, AC Milan are actively seeking to revamp their midfield after a disappointing run during the current season. While managerial issues have been a point of criticism, the midfield’s lackluster performance has raised even more eyebrows. As Milan look ahead to the summer transfer window, they are determined to sign a versatile midfielder to address this growing crisis. An established Italian journalist has confirmed the credibility of this news in his latest blog post.
AC Milan are currently in talks with their top target and are eager to finalize the deal quickly in hopes of bolstering their squad for the next season. The player in question is Manchester United midfielder Sofyan Amrabat, with whom Milan have reportedly maintained close communication. However, the deal involves more than just United—Amrabat’s official registration still belongs to Fiorentina. Milan are hoping to reach an agreement with the Italian club, especially since United are unlikely to exercise their option to purchase him permanently.
Amrabat initially joined Manchester United with high expectations, seen as a potential solution to the club’s midfield problems. But things didn’t go as planned—his performances fell short, and during the latter half of the season, he was rarely seen on the pitch. As a result, the club appears to have already moved on. Amrabat, left disheartened on the bench, is reportedly optimistic about returning to Serie A, where he previously shone for Fiorentina and earned international recognition for his displays with the Moroccan national team.
Milan are said to be offering €15 million for the transfer, hoping this sum will be enough to persuade Fiorentina. The withdrawal of Manchester United from the race has made things easier for Milan, who admit they can’t compete financially if a club like United drives up the price. However, the situation has become complicated with Juventus now re-entering the picture. BD Cricket observers noted that Juve’s ability to hijack transfers is “next-level,” and even Inter Milan has suffered from their last-minute swoops more than once.
Yet, the AC Milan fanbase isn’t unanimously thrilled about the potential signing. “Wearing a mask for too long makes it painful to remove”—some fans feel that the club’s intent to buy an ‘all-round’ midfielder doesn’t align with Amrabat’s skillset. While he brings defensive grit, his technical ability and versatility are seen as limited. Critics point out that Milan already have players in this mold—like Yunus Musah—making another similar signing redundant.
With financial resources stretched thin, many argue that spending €15 million on Amrabat is not a wise investment. BD Cricket analysts have also expressed doubts over Milan’s scouting decisions in recent windows. If the Amrabat gamble backfires, it could make future transfer strategies even more difficult to implement. As the saying goes, “once bitten, twice shy”—Milan can’t afford to get it wrong again.
