"Igli Tare is a great admirer of the Bochum-born midfielder and is looking to repeat the Luka Modric coup he pulled off last summer. He wants a player with experience, class and leadership, to help a club hungry to return to being the number ones in Italy. Tare wants Goretzka, and Goretzka appreciates Milan's advances. The contact revealed the Bayern man's appreciation for Milan's project, a crucial first step toward concrete discussions regarding a move to Massimiliano Allegri's side."
"Nothing is advanced at the moment, but Milan feel they are firmly in the running for Goretzka and do not want to leave any stone unturned. The main obstacle the Diavolo will have to overcome is the fierce competition from rivals who have stronger financial capabilities. For example, Tottenham Hotspur were the first to register interest in Goretzka, intent on revamping their midfield. The real threat lies with Spanish clubs: Barcelona and Atlético Madrid have asked about the 30-year-old too."
AC Milan have opened contacts with the Roof agency, which represents Niclas Fullkrug, to obtain an update on Leon Goretzka's situation ahead of a potential summer move. Sporting director Igli Tare views Goretzka as a target to replicate last summer's Luka Modric acquisition, seeking experience, class and leadership to strengthen the midfield. Goretzka has shown appreciation for Milan's project, creating a basis for further talks. Milan face competition from wealthier rivals, notably Tottenham, Barcelona and Atlético Madrid. Milan consider Goretzka’s salary demands manageable only with a pay cut, and commission details will follow wage agreement.
