"It was first reported by Gianluca Di Marzio earlier in the week that Goretzka is a target for Milan. His experience, quality and versatility are all factors that are deemed attractive, but above all it is the fact his deal expires in June, so he would be available on a free transfer. Salary demands surface Tuttosport (via MilanPress) report that Milan want to close the gap with Napoli and Inter ahead of next season, at least in terms of squad size and depth."
"For this reason, the main target for the summer of 2026 currently appears to be Goretzka. The Bayern Munich midfielder has won some 16 trophies in seven and a half years in Bavaria, but at the moment his future at the club is far from certain given that his deal is expiring and his role is decreasing in importance under Vincent Kompany."
"According to the newspaper, Igli Tare is working hard to bring the German to Milan in a Luka Modric-style move, but his asking price is currently very high. He's said to be asking for €7m net per the same amount as Rafael Leao gets and what will by offered to Mike Maignan. Allegri knows full well that to win, you need to add players like these to your squad, and they obviously need to be paid too."
Goretzka is a target for Milan because experience, quality and versatility make him attractive, and his contract expires in June making him available on a free transfer. Milan aims to close the gap with Napoli and Inter by increasing squad size and depth, with Goretzka as a main summer 2026 target. The Bayern Munich midfielder has won some 16 trophies in seven and a half years, but his role is diminishing under Vincent Kompany as his contract nears expiry. Igli Tare is pursuing a Luka Modric-style acquisition, but Goretzka is reportedly asking for €7m net, matching top club earners and complicating negotiations. Allegri accepts that such additions require significant pay.
