"It seemed AC Milan would need a striker to leave this month to allow someone new to arrive. However, this may not be the case. Throughout the season so far, Milan have been tempted by the idea of signing a new striker. To do so, it seemed they would have had to part with one of the options already at the club."
"Things have changed slightly in the past 24 hours, though, and now Jean-Philippe Mateta's name is ringing around the heads of Milanisti. There is a chance that the Frenchman joins the club, but it seemed like hope would be needed. Reports initially stated that a departure would be needed, but it seems that this is no longer the case. As MilanNews writes, the French duo could both play a part in the second half of the season,"
AC Milan considered signing a new striker but believed a current forward would need to leave to create space. Santiago Gimenez's injury removed one option and left Christopher Nkunku as the only alternative, but Nkunku has not been open to a move and attracted no bids when Fenerbahce showed interest. Interest in Jean-Philippe Mateta of Crystal Palace has emerged in the past 24 hours. Reports indicate a departure may no longer be required and Milan could register both Mateta and Nkunku. Clubs and agents aim to complete Mateta's transfer in the coming days, with Nkunku's situation to be revisited in summer.
