AC Milan are still working to bring Andrej Kostic, a striker who turned 19 yesterday, but there is still a distance over offer and demand. Milan's scouts have been impressed by the Montenegrin's first half of the season with Partizan Belgrade: 20 appearances and eight goals, almost all as a substitute. The investment would be primarily for Milan Futuro, but with a clear path into the first team as well.
Jovan Kirovski, sporting director of Milan Futuro, is planning to make direct contact with Kostic in the next few days, very soon. "The problem is that Milan is offering a fixed base offer of €2.5-€3 million. Partizan is asking for more. Then, with bonuses, all bonuses tied to performance in the first team, Milan would reach €7-€8 million. But right now, the gap between the clubs is wide.
