Priority of the Milan transfer window, the file leading to the recruitment of Joshua Zirkzee (23 years old) is becoming complicated. The Bologna striker, author of 11 goals in Serie A this season, has the perfect profile to replace Olivier Giroud, leaving for the United States. AC Milan are ready to pay a significant sum to sign the Dutchman. But the 40 million euros in his release clause are not enough. According to Sky Sportsthe commissions to be awarded to the player’s agents are exorbitant, blocking the progress of negotiations.

In total, these would amount to around 15 million euros. The player’s entourage justifies this price because, according to them, the release clause is low compared to the value of their player. The Lombard management does not intend to pay so much for Joshua Zirkzee’s agents and is already looking elsewhere. Still according to the Italian channel, the Rossoneri are looking at Artem Dovbyk, the Girona striker and top scorer in La Liga this season. The track leading to Armando Broja is also under study.
