The winter soccer market session promises to be particularly eventful for AC Milan, desperate to find a new center forward to please Massimiliano Allegri. So far Cristopher Nkunku has disappointed expectations and Santiago Gimenez has failed to make an impact: the Frenchman is late in his condition, the Mexican is not the ideal profile for Allegri and has already been close to a transfer in the summer (there had been talk of a possible exchange with Roma’s Artem Dovbyk). Igli Tare has been working for some time to identify the’right opportunity for January and some help could come from Antonio Conte’s Napoli.

The coach from Lecce is not satisfied with the performance offered so far by Lorenzo Lucca and would like to get rid of him as early as in the coming weeks.Aurelio De Laurentiis is willing to please his coach but would prefer to sell Lucca abroad so as not to strengthen the competition. Here, however, takes over the will of the striker, who seems oriented to stay in Italy to prove his worth in Serie A. Milan is watching the situation with great interest, but Roma could also make an attempt for the former Udinese man. Gian Piero Gasperini is in great difficulty with Evan Ferguson and Artem Dovbyk and urgently needs to fix the’attack.

Accordingly, Milan&#8217s need to sign a new striker in January was also stressed by Arrigo Sacchi, who spoke to the Gazzetta dello Sport about the matter as follows:“Logical now to wonder where this Milan team can go from here. Soccer is too slippery a subject to unbalance in a net prediction, however, as I have said before, the Rossoneri can play for the title all the way. If then, at the January market, a striker will be bought, which this team needs like bread, then clear horizons can be opened. Napoli and Inter, which I consider the best equipped to win the Scudetto, will do well not to underestimate the growth of this Milan team. I wouldn”t be surprised if, in the spring, we find ourselves with Milan ahead of everyone and the others damning their souls in the chase”.

Reduced from their 3-2 comeback victory over Torino, Milan will host Fabio Grosso’s Sassuolo at the San Siro on Sunday. The neroverde side is having an excellent championship and is eighth, -3 behind seventh-placed Juventus.
