Milan: back for Romagnoli. Juve: it's Draxler's day
AC Milan keep on seeking a midfielder, and, as reported earlier today, are also keen on Zenit St. Petersburg 26-year-old Axel Witsel: as outlined by calciomercato.com, the rossoneri –counting on the fact that they already have an agreement with the Belgium international- keep on negotiating cautiously with the Russian club, who keeps on asking for 35 million euros, while they are ready to offer no more than 25 millions, considering the fact that Chelsea have left the transfer race for the former Benfica player and Juventus don’t consider the signing of a midfielder one of their priorities; in the reality, also the Lombardian club’s priority concerns the defense, and, according to the latest rumors, has increased to 27 million euros the offer for AS Roma 20-year-old Alessio Romagnoli: such amount is needed by the giallorossi to obtain Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko. Finally, regarding the possible departures, Milan’s coach Sinisa Mihajlovic has decided to block the transfer of 20-year-old forward M’Baye Niang, who was a target for Newcastle United. Juventus keep on seeking an attacking midfielder, and while Bayern Munich Chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has told Kicker that 23-year-old Mario Gotze is not for sale, the Piedmont’s club Chief Executive Giuseppe Marotta –as outlined by calciomercato.com- could fly today to Germany to carry out the negotiation for Schalke 04 21-year-old Julian Draxler.
