‘Would gladly come’ – Pellegatti states Walker has already ‘offered’ himself to Milan | OneFootball

Kyle Walker is a transfer target for AC Milan, and the right-back has offered himself to the club, according to a journalist this afternoon.

The right-back position is one that Milan fans have constantly been frustrated by in recent years. Davide Calabria has slowly faded whilst summer signing Emerson Royal has yet to win everyone over with hit-and-miss performances.

Given Calabria’s contract is set to expire this summer, talks of another new arrival are rife, but the Rossoneri have to prioritise the right areas. In addition to this, signing Walker is arguably only a short-term solution.

Carlo Pellegatti spoke to Pressing, via Milan News, about the chances of the Englishman arriving at Milanello, and he revealed that Walker intends to move to Italy.

“Walker has guaranteed Milan that he could arrive for zero. He still has one and a half years with Manchester City, and he should still earn €9 million, but he has told Milan that he is willing to spread this figure over two and a half years.

“The Englishman is liked because he is a captain. Walker has offered and would gladly come to Milan. If he were to arrive, the deal for Marcus Rashford, a striker on his way out of Manchester United as the Rossoneri can only take one English player, would be skipped. At that point, Milan would go for another striker.”

Whether any deal will happen remains to be seen, especially considering that negotiations have slowed today with the Diavolo looking more at an attacking option.
