Vitiello: ‘Confidence growing’ – Milan send ‘improved’ offer to Feyenoord for Gimenez | OneFootball

With Alvaro Morata heading towards the exit and Francesco Camarda departing, AC Milan desperately need a striker through the door, and confidence is growing.

Whatever happens, you don’t get rid of two of your three first-team striker options mid-season, unless a replacement is all but guaranteed to arrive. Of course, we can include Luka Jovic here, but he nor Tammy Abraham are the most reliable options.

Entering the second half of the season relying on that duo is a recipe for failure, so things must be perfectly calculated, and it seems that things are progressing further with Santiago Gimenez.

If the Mexican were to arrive, it would lessen the pressure, definitely, but with him suffering an injury on Wednesday night, there also has to be precaution about his situation.

Nevertheless, as Antonio Vitiello of Milan News writes, Milan have submitted another bid for the striker this afternoon, with contact resuming earlier in the day. At present, no response has arrived from the Dutch outfit, but in a later tweet, the journalist stated that ‘confidence is growing’.

Vitiello states that the Rossoneri are ‘pressing’ for the deal, which might be due to how quickly a move for Alvaro Morata has come to fruition and the fact they do not want to be left red-faced.
