"AC Milan are very close to finalising a deal for another striker, after having got the one for Niclas Füllkrug over the line. As La Gazzetta dello Sport report, in addition to bringing Füllkrug to Italy in a loan with option to buy deal, Milan have 'essentially finalised' the signing of centre-forward Andrej Kostic from Partizan Belgrade in Serbia. The idea is to bring Kostic in as quickly as possible, to familiarise him with the Milan environment."
"Kostic has already scored eight goals in the Serbian league at the age of just 18, and he is referred to by some as the 'next Vlahovic'. Kostic can play as a striker or as a second striker. He's physically imposing, standing at 188cm tall, and is growing rapidly. This season, despite playing limited minutes, he's the team's second-highest scorer. Milan are signing Kostic with the idea of giving him plenty of minutes with Milan Futuro, the second team competing in Serie D."
AC Milan have completed a loan deal for Niclas Füllkrug with an option to buy and have essentially finalised signing Andrej Kostic from Partizan Belgrade. Kostic is 18 years old and has scored eight goals in the Serbian league. The permanent purchase is expected to be worth around €5m and the move is targeted for January. Kostic can play as a striker or a second striker, stands 188cm tall, and moved from Buducnost to Partizan this summer. He is the second-highest scorer for his team despite limited minutes and scored in the Italy-Montenegro U21 match on September 5th. Milan plan to give him regular minutes with Milan Futuro in Serie D to aid his adaptation and development before first-team involvement.
