Milan s first choice for full-back Cambiaso, transforming Salmacoles into an alternative
Italian media "Milan Sports" reported that AC Milan's primary goal in the transfer market this summer is to fill the team's vacancy in two full-back positions, and their number one candidate is Juventus player Andrea Cambiaso. Allegri worked with Cambiaso while coaching Juventus.
There are many reasons why the Red and Black Legion favored Cambiaso. First of all, Cambiaso is an Italian local player, familiar with Allegri's tactical philosophy, and the most important thing is that he is competent in the position on both sides. However, the main obstacle to introducing him is the high transfer fees. "Milan Sports" reported that Manchester City offered Cambiaso 60 million euros in January this year, but was rejected by Juventus. The Zebra Legion seemed to have no intention of letting go of the player who grew up from Genoa's youth training camp. Therefore, for Milan, signing Cambiaso is more like a "dream" or similarly difficult to achieve.
In addition to Cambiaso, there are many players entering AC Milan's sight. On the right is Guera Douai, the elder brother of Paris Saint-Germain's European champion winger Desir Duai. He was born in 2002 and played for Strasbourg. Last summer, Strasbourg spent €6.5 million plus bonuses to sign him from Rennes. Douai, who is only 22 years old, still has a lot of room for improvement, especially in offensive advancement. His physical fitness is excellent, with the transfer fee expected to be around 20 million euros.
Red and Black Legion also received recommendations about Zakaria Wahdi. Wahdi was born in Belgium, but has become naturalized in Morocco and currently plays for Henk. He is slightly lower than Geera Douai in height, but has outstanding goals and scored 8 goals in the 2024-25 season. AC Milan's scout team knew him and gave positive feedback.
In addition, Almeria's 2003-born player Mark Pubir, who also entered Milan's vision. Atlanta had wanted to sign him in January, and now Napoli sees him as a replacement for Sevilla player Juan Lou Sanchez.
On the left side, former Lazio sports director Tare had hoped to bring Destini Udorgi to the Blue Eagles, but Tottenham moved faster and signed him from Udinese. Udoji's joining will increase the proportion of Italian players in Allegri's lineup. As for Cambiaso, who is competent for the left and right sides, the previous article has been explained.
In addition, although Arsenal's Oleksand Zinchenko is 28 years old, it is also worth paying attention to. Arsenal is about to sign Ajax's left-wing player Yorell Hato, the 2006-born player is also another Milan "dream" goal. However, his value is equally high, and Milan is currently difficult to compete with the Gunners. Unless Tare can bring amazing surprises.
Since there are no European competition tasks in the new season, AC Milan's lineup will not be too large. The club hopes to make the most of the players currently training in Milanello. If it cannot get what it wants in the transfer market, Allegri may also tap internal potential. On the right, Allegrini can consider using Salmarques, who transformed Cuadrado into a full-back during Juventus's period; Alex Jimenez is also an alternative for this position. On the left, Bad Saji is the one who Allegri considers. Allegri was good at cultivating young people during his time at Juventus, and it was an opportunity for Bad Saji.
