There has been a lot said about Musah this season, and unfortunately for the midfielder, not all of it has been positive. In fact, he has delivered several poor performances and struggled to get back on track since.
So, an exit, one way or another, seemed likely this summer. However, the interested party is perhaps a bit of a shock.
We go back to last summer to find the first instance of Napoli’s interest, and the reports suggested that Antonio Conte liked the profile of the American. However, Milan wanted to retain the midfielder, believing he could progress.
Of course, we know that was not really the case. Despite a number of different positions, the former Arsenal academy man has failed to solidify himself in one role, and now just fills in when needed. A utility player, but not a good one, unfortunately.
Despite this, Conte has remained infatuated with the midfielder and has tracked him since the end of April this year to see his situation, as Daniele Longo reports for Calciomercato.com
With an exit likely, then, there is a big question to answer. How will it be structured? Well, Longo continues his report, stating that negotiations are around the €20 million mark plus bonuses, which you would imagine take the deal near €25-30m.
Considering the Rossoneri spent just less than €22m on the midfielder two summers ago, it is not a bad deal to receive. However, his time in Milano has certainly underwhelmed
