This will be a big summer for AC Milan, and the fates of some loan players can help this situation further.
As Gazzetta dello Sport writes, there are 12 players who are currently out on loan: Devis Vasquez (Empoli), Pierre Kalulu (Juventus), Marco Pellegrino (Huracan), Tommaso Pobega (Bologna), Yacine Adli (Fiorentina), Kevin Zeroli (Monza), Ismael Bennacer (Marseille), Alexis Saelemaekers (AS Roma), Noah Okafor (Naples), Lorenzo Colombo (Empoli), Marko Lazetic (Backa Topola) and Alvaro Morata (Galatasaray).
However, they will not all share the same fate; in fact, there are several different hypotheses on the table.
It starts with the departures, where Milan hoped to earn as much as €90 million from those currently on loan. The actual picture is much different, with only Kalulu’s loan set to be made permanent, at least of the big ones.
That means almost €75m will return this summer, and there is no real clarity on their own situations past that, unfortunately. With a new sporting director and head coach, some fates may change. For example, Ismael Bennacer could be given another chance with Tijjani Reijnders’ likely exit removing a creative spark in midfield.
Alexis Saelemaekers could also play a part, with Allegri already hoping to make him a part of the squad. Nevertheless, with the club needing funds and a slimmer squad, players like Morata will surely only be headed one way.
