**AC Milan hope they do not have to go back to the drawing board in their striker pursuit, but if they do then there are some ideas.**
The latest on the hunt for a new No.9 is that Milan [**seem to be getting closer to signing Rasmus Hojlund**](https://sempremilan.com/gift-max-milan-hojlund-before-opener) from Manchester United. The Dane’s doubts are fading away, and all that remains is to strike a meeting point on the option to buy with the Premier League club.
However, Igli Tare wants to have a new centre-forward in before the Cremonese game one week on Saturday, so if Milan hit another wall then they might have to look at other options.
**Alternative ideas**
---------------------
Yesterday, the English media reported that Fulham are keen on the former Atalanta man, while Borussia Dortmund are also keeping an eye on events. So, until the deal is finalised, Hojlund remains coveted by other teams.
What if the United striker doesn’t arrive in the end? The easiest route would lead to Nikola Krstovic of Lecce, while for players like Nicolas Jackson, it would be necessary to wait for Chelsea to open up to a loan.
Likewise, for Dusan Vlahovic – a target of Allegri’s – the terms are accessible, both in terms of the transfer fee and salary. Finally, keep an eye on Atletico Madrid, who are letting go of Norwegian Alexander Sorloth.
