According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Young Boys’ Zachary Athekame has emerged as the main alternative to the expensive Guéla Doué for Milan, while Manchester United forward Rasmus Hojlund is an option for the attack.
Milan’s pre-season tour in Asia is over, so the Rossoneri directors are now focusing on bringing in reinforcements before the official start of the season.
Ardon Jashari remains the top target in central midfield, while Guéla Doué is the priority in the right-back position.
The Frenchman, however, is valued at €30m by Strasbourg, so the Rossoneri may be forced to look elsewhere for reinforcements in that position.
According to Gazzetta, Young Boys’ Athekame is the main alternative due to his characteristics and a significantly lower price tag than Doué.
Milan also need to sign a centre-forward, and even if Vlahovic remains a top name on Milan’s agenda, the likes of Gonçalo Ramos and Hojlund are also being considered.
Hojlund has said that he wants to remain at Manchester United in 2025-26, but according to Gazzetta, the Red Devils are open to discussing an initial loan deal.
