Milan interested in Lamela of River Plate
Ganso or Lamela, the future AC Milan's quarterback will be from South America. In recent weeks there has been much talk about the Santos'player, but the Rossoneri have still got an eye on the gem of River Plate. Calciomercato.com asked the opinion of Eugenio Ascari, Fira agent and great expert of South American football, above all Argentina.
Lamela-Milan, can it be done?
I don't know if River Plate has started a negotiation with Milan or Lazio, but I can say that the Rossoneri continue to follow the player. I know that Braida saw him and was impressed. River Plate valued him at 12 million euro last winter, but the price could have gone up. Lamela is doing well, unlike Funes Mori (the striker liked by Fiorentina), who is not playing at the moment. Despite his young age he's a first liner with continuity in a 4-2-3-1 behind the first striker who is usually Pavone, even if lately ex Udinese Caruso has been playing. River count on him, that's why they did not allow him to participate in the South American Under 20. They are not in a hurry to sell him, they could keep him in Argentina for another year.
Lamela-Ganso, what's the difference?
They are two very similar players, both quarterbacks, both not too fast. They are not like Kaka, but they are both techically strong. Ganso is 3 years older than Lamela.
Are there any other young players in Argentina?
The goalkeeper of Lanus Esteban Andrada, the central defender of River Plate German Pezzella, and the quarterback of Estudiantes Michael Hoyos.
