Milan are eager to avoid delays and are strongly considering expediting a transfer for VfB Stuttgart striker Serhou Guirassy to secure their new forward.
The Rossoneri have been in negotiations for weeks to finalize a deal for Bologna prodigy Joshua Zirkzee, prepared to meet his €40 million release clause. However, talks have hit an impasse due to agent Kia Joorabchian’s demand of €15 million in fees and commissions, a sum Milan is reluctant to pay.
Identifying several alternative options, including Chelsea’s Armando Broja, Milan’s pursuit has slowed amidst the distractions of the European Championship. The club aims to finalize their new striker signing ahead of the upcoming pre-season preparations.
According to today’s Corriere dello Sport, Milan’s primary target for an immediate signing to strengthen their attack is Guirassy, whose release clause stands at €17.5 million. The Rossoneri are seriously contemplating accelerating their efforts for the 28-year-old striker, who scored 30 goals and contributed three assists in 30 appearances this past season for Stuttgart.
While navigating additional fees, including commissions, Milan views the potential deal for Guirassy as more economical compared to the proposed Zirkzee transfer.
