Milan, choice made for new striker
Stuttgart ready to give up Guinean striker. Beware of the English
Milan seems to have decided to bet on Guirassy. In order to reinforce the offensive department, the Rossoneri club has set its eyes on the Stuttgart jewel. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, there is also the price: 17 million euros to wrest him from the German club and include him in the Rossoneri’s squad, in Pioli’s employ. The only real problem: English competition.
Actually, there would be another small problem. Guirassy, a Guinean national, will participate in the next Africa Cup of Nations (Jan. 13 to Feb. 11, 2024). So, for at least a month, he would not be available to Milan. No small obstacle, considering that the Diavolo needs a striker right away. An obstacle that could lower the price tag.
With the help of the growth decree (still valid in January), è it is clear that Milan aims to close the deal already during this market window, so as to then have a valuable element in the squad without having shelled out crazy amounts of money. Also for the future, with Giroud who might be at the last dance in the Rossoneri, someone like Guirassy would be an excellent market coup.
