Donnarumma, Romagnoli, De Sciglio, Locatelli are all players we would go for if we had the chance. probably Suso too
This. I don't know if some posters overate our squad or just hate Milan too much to look at their players.

Donnarumma is self explanatory, I think we would all fap to that move. If our midfield is hosting Sturaro, Lemina and Mandragora then obviously Locatelli would get in. He is better in performance and potential than the first two and while Mandragora looked like a great talent before the 2 injuries, he is very raw atm. De Sciglio plays in a position where we have a post injury Asamoah deputising and 2 players whose aggregate age is 66. Romagnoli is excellent. With our defenders getting older it would be a dream to have him. We don't even really have a back up to Cuadrado (where is Pjaca truly better?) so yes, Suso could definitely get in the team.

Not that I think we should (or could) go for all those, but any of them would be welcome.

I won't go for Suso, he is useless for us imo, something like Gomez from Atalanta – great player for a small team, not a big team player. Locatelli doesn't strike me as a wc talent, but I saw him maybe 8-10 times max, he might be better than Sturaro, but he doesn't have Rick Ross tattoo. DeS – yeah, I would go for him, solid back up for both sides. Donna is impossible.

I wouldn't go for Suso either, we can do better. Just saying that he could get in the squad as it is right now. He is basically the Spanish Coman with the extra years of development.

If you mean squad players, many players can get in. But for potential starters, its only Donna and Romagnoli for Milan, both can become top players in their position.

Locatelli is young and sound talent, but litterally nothing is special about him, he keeps the basics and does things alright. But potential starter for top club? Nah, he is mainly gotten chances for Milan simply because there options are that dire, he is getting benched by Sosa nowadays, says it all. D Sciglio is text book backup/rotation level player, will never think he is good enough to start for Juve unless shown otherwise, but yeah he is the most likely and most realistic of them.


And if Juve cant find someone better then Suso to sign, then we really given up as a top club.

I only mentioned back ups in my post.

Except for Donna and Romagnoli of course.

I agree that Locatelli doesn't look too special, but a player who has all the basics right at 18/19 years old is very rare. Worth keeping an eye on. I don't think Milan is the right environment for a midfielder to develop. I can imagine Locatelli becoming very successful growing with us. Is he looking worse than Marchisio at his age? I can see him become like that, or like a Jorginho controlling the tempo with sharp passing.

Haha Verratti really has the biggiest loud mouth agent. Every damn month he waxes on and off about the kid. Odd fit since Verratti himself is so calm and quiet.

Fun part is, he switches around all the time.


This week verratti wants to win and he doesnt win at PSG where there are "hidden issues" and needs to go to a top club.

2 weeks ago Verratti wasent going anywhere, staying at PSG

weeks before he wanted Juve.

weeks therefore, he wanted long term stay at psg





What will it be next week ? vote now

Verratti and his agent are hilarious together
Verratti: I love PSG and would stay there forever and ever
His agent: Dont listen to him - He is a prisoner there - He is crying for a top team to take him away
Verratti: Its all nonsense unless PSG decide to sell me I`ll be a PSG player for many years
His agent: Nonsense Shmonsense - Do you really believe he is happy there - It was only yesterday he ate a bad croson..

I think Verratti wants to stay clean with PSG so he asks his agent to do his I want to move thing - otherwise he should fire his agent...

Yeh. Obvs thats a plan to try for a move without causing him much trouble, and the agent getting all the blame. Its a plot by the 2 of course.

Surely Donnarumma will stay at Milan. *

Apart from Manchester City, no one is rumoured as wanting to pay the £125m (€135m) needed to land him.

* Referencing Osman and Gigiventus above.

Who gave these numbers?!
Dahoud 15M?! If this was the price you would have seen him sign for someone already...
Verratti 70M?! I guess he would have been signed as well

If these are real numbers Bakayoko and Dahoud are must signings while Tolisso is already a Juve player IMO
Dahoud would definitely cost way more than that and for 15M he is worth it for the sum I think he will be sold we can look for better options for us
Bakayoko would be a good option even if I think his passing game could improve

If he decides against signing a contract Milan would have no choice but it could be just Raiola playing hardball to get him a huge salary

He has stated on several occasions that his preference is to remain at Milan.

The only potential problem for Milan in terms of the retention of him is the excruciatingly protracted takeover discussions which may have significant financial implications if the promised funding fails to materialise.
