Tresoldi is stirring up the Serie A transfer market: a third major club emerges between Milan and Juventus
Nicolò Tresoldi is set to be one of the most talked-about names in the upcoming transfer window. The Club Brugge center forward has made a name for himself with impressive performances and statistics, attracting the attention of several Italian clubs. Milan appears intent on making a move as early as January to try to bring him to Serie A, but the competition could become particularly fierce: Juventus has also set its sights on the striker, while in the background, Napoli’s potential interest remains to be assessed.
The Rossoneri seem ready to get serious. Gerry Cardinale reportedly sees Tresoldi as the ideal reinforcement to boost the offensive firepower of Ruben Amorim’s team and pair him with Gonçalo Ramos, who has not always been incisive in front of goal so far. Milan would like to get ahead of the competition as early as the winter transfer window, with an investment that could be around 50 million euros. Another factor in the Rossoneri’s favor is the player’s loyalty to Milan; he has never hidden his connection to the Rossoneri’s colors.
Juventus is also on the striker’s trail, interested in a young player who is already capable of making a significant impact in front of the net. The Bianconeri management is evaluating various options to strengthen the attacking lineup at Luciano Spalletti’s disposal, and Tresoldi represents a possibility worth considering. Juve fully intends to complicate Milan’s plans, while still trying to prevent a bidding war from breaking out over the player.
A third major club, Napoli, has also emerged among the potential suitors. The difficulties faced by the attacking unit in this first part of the season could convince the Neapolitan club to enter the transfer market sooner than expected to find new solutions. While still keeping Monza’s Gustavo Varela in their sights, the Azzurri are reportedly ready to shift their focus to Tresoldi, who—unlike the Portuguese player—already has more than decent international experience at the club level, thanks to his appearances in the Champions League with Club Brugge.
The Belgian club, for its part, has no intention of facilitating a potential departure and is asking for a fee close to 50 million euros, having already rejected a 35-million-euro offer from Roma this past summer. This substantial figure could complicate a January transfer, even though the interested clubs are eager to move as quickly as possible to prevent the extremely wealthy Premier League clubs from entering the bidding war.
