AC Milan are looking for a new signing to bolster the right flank, and there are two options that currently stand out at present.<\/p>\n
According to Tuttosport (via Calciomercato.com<\/a>), what has emerged is that coach Ruben Amorim is considering playing Alexis Saelemaekers on the left side as an inverted wing-back. While waiting to see if this is confirmed in preseason, it could mean Milan need a starter on the right.<\/p>\n
Last summer, Milan invested around \u20ac10m to sign Zachary Athekame from BSC Young Boys and he certainly had some bright moments, though whether he is considered ready to be a starter remains to be seen.<\/p>\n Two targets for the right<\/p>\n The management\u2019s hunt for a new right wing-back has brought back the name of Guela Dou\u00e9<\/a>, who plays at Strasbourg. He is a defender that had already been sought after by the Rossoneri a year ago, until they ended up signing Athekame<\/a>.<\/p>\n Contact has already been made with the player\u2019s entourage, and the Ivorian has enthusiastically expressed his desire to move to Milanello. A five-year contract worth \u20ac2.5m net per season plus bonuses is on the table.<\/p>\n It won\u2019t be easy to reach an agreement with Strasbourg, who run a rather expensive shop. For this reason, Milan is also considering an alternative option, namely Rafik Belghali of Hellas Verona.<\/p>\n The Rossoneri have inquired about the Algerian full-back, who stood out during the World Cup and is valued at \u20ac15m. Fiorentina are also interested in signing Belghali.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"AC Milan are looking for a new signing to bolster the right flank, and there are two options…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":795441,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[440],"tags":[49,48,561,82],"class_list":["post-795440","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/795440","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=795440"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/795440\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/795441"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=795440"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=795440"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=795440"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
