There are a number of intriguing names on AC Milan’s wishlist this summer, and among the top names is Federico Chiesa.
Adding a new winger in the summer mercato is a must for Milan, considering the depth currently is lacking a little, even with the addition of Alexis Saelemaekers. So, a new addition is required, as has been reported previously.
There are several targets shortlisted. However, a move for Chiesa is being consistently spoken, and maybe dreamed about. There are certainly things to sort out with the potential deal, but it is present and work is being done.
Milan are present
According to Ciro Venerato, when speaking to Rai 2, the Rossoneri are currently seeking a deal for the winger, and have been in contact with the Merseyside club to discuss his situation, as Milan News relays.
“Milan are interested in Federico Chiesa! A phone call to his entourage and a meeting with Liverpool through an intermediary. Liverpool’s veto must be removed, as they want to give the player to Milan on loan with an obligation to buy, and not on loan with an option.
“Milan has forcefully entered for Chiesa, who Napoli is evaluating but considers him only as an alternative to other wingers, starting with Ndoye. While Allegri, who knows the Italian offensive winger very well, would gladly take him.

“The problem is the formula, because Milan does not intend to risk large sums. A loan with an option or a loan with a conditional obligation could be a solution. On the fact that Milan and Allegri are thinking about Chiesa, I can confirm it a thousand percent.”
The loan to buy solution is certainly a risk, but if the figures are right both on the permanent move and his wage demands, it could be a superb opportunity.
