A.C. Milan is in such a hurry. It wants to improve, as soon as possible, the squad, so as to deliver to Max Allegri those reinforcements needed to cope with a few too many problems at the level of resources. The defeat to Napoli in the Italian Super Cup has certified the need to include fresh forces in the current squad, so as to have more solutions to choose from. In addition to the striker, who is now very close to arrival, a high-quality defender is also needed to shore up the defensive department.

The first piece of good news is that Igli Tare, Milan’s market man, now seems to have found the’agreement with West Ham for the loan of Niclas Fullkrug. The mighty German center forward is close to leaving London and flying to Milan to start his adventure in the Rossoneri, hoping it will be the right choice to relaunch himself. West Ham seems determined to let him go. They would only be working on the formula of the’agreement with the English club, which would like to include the’obligation of redemption upon reaching certain conditions (access to the next Champions League by the Diavolo?).

Contemporaneously, Igli Tare would be probing the ground in search of a strong defender. Again, the spotlight is on the Premier League. There are rumors of important contacts with Chelsea, another London club, for Axel Disasi. The Frenchman has no room at the Blues and would be considering all options on the table. There would also be the possibility of dressing in the Rossoneri. Milan would like to close on a dry loan, perhaps with Chelsea willing to pay part of the wages. Axel Disasi could be reevaluated by the Max Allegri cure.

The Diavolo is moving relentlessly to try to give the two new additions to Max Allegri as soon as possible so that they can fit into Milan at their best. The striker seems almost certain by now (the transaction with West Ham for Niclas Fullkrug is expected to be made official soon), and for the defender there is a good chance that the deal will materialize quickly.

It remains to be seen whether anyone will leave Milan. Several names could end up packing their bags, especially if the right offer comes in. Clearly, the’idea is to increase the technical rate and not reduce it but Igli Tare knows that, in every club, you also have to make ends meet economically.
