Earlier this week, Carlo Pellegatti expressed worry about Davide Bartesaghi’s future at AC Milan, amidst interest from Arsenal.
The journalist claimed that if the Gunners make a major offer for the player, Milan could be tempted to sell. This will grant them a major capital gain as the left-back is a youth product.
Arsenal have now been given some hope for any pursuit of the 19-year-old.
Tuttomercatoweb’s Marco Conterio reports that the presence of Andrea Berta and Maurizio Micheli at the Emirates can help the Gunners. It is believed that Mikel Arteta’s side could have a ‘privileged access’ to Serie A, because of the duo.
Despite this advantage. Milan’s stance on Bartesaghi is quite firm. They will not sell the talent anytime soon, regardless of how much is put forward.
The report claims that other English clubs are also interested in him. But the Rossoneri see the full-back as a key part of their future, especially since his contract runs out in 2030.
Considering Riccardo Calafiori and Myles Lewis-Skelly, it is fair to doubt Arsenal’s interest in Bartesaghi. They might not need the youngster anytime soon and this can just be one way for the Italian media to hype Bartesaghi.
