Sky journalist claims Milan will try ‘until the end’ to sign Ricci in January | OneFootball

There have been claims that AC Milan may postpone their attempt for Samuele Ricci until the summer, but that may not be the case…

The big targets for Milan in the January mercato is another midfielder and an attacker, and there are two dream investments it seems. Going forward, Marcus Rashford is the heavily rumoured addition, with the Englishman reportedly willing to take a wage cut to sign for the Rossoneri.

In midfield, the market is a bit more open. Names have flown about all season, but it seems the club are looking to make a move for Reda Belahyane from Hellas Verona, despite claims that Samuele Ricci would be targeted mid-season.

Reports in recent days have all suggested that the attempt would be postponed until the summer, but Peppe di Stefano, the Sky journalist, has suggested otherwise when speaking to Carlo Pellegatti on his YouTube channel.

“I believe that Milan will take a talented forward, a starter. I am also convinced that Milan will not stop (eventually) at Rashford, but I believe they will try until the end to bring the signing of Ricci forward to January.”

With Torino making an attempt for Chelsea midfielder Cesare Casadei, the idea of Ricci arriving in the middle of the season may not be too far-fetched.
