Milan are the latest Serie A team rumored to have Empoli revelation Tommaso Baldanzi in their crosshairs. The attacking midfielder has quickly become a linchpin for his team after being permanently promoted from the Primavera side last summer.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, the Tuscan club have established a €15/20M price tag for him. Although, they’d like to keep him for another season, directly or on loan, to allow him to flourish completely. The 20-year-old has been linked to Napoli and Juventus in previous weeks.
Milan could insert one of their own prodigies, Maikol Cifuentes, in the negotiation to lower the fee for Baldanzi. The Tuscan club is keen on him regardless. The 18-year-old is considered one of their most promising prospects, and his contract runs out in 2024.
The Italian starlet debuted in Serie A late last season and burst onto the scenes early in the present one. He snatched the starting job away from Nedim Bajrami, who eventually transferred to Sassuolo. Even though he hasn’t scored in a while, his overall numbers remain solid, as he has bagged 4 goals in 18 appearances.
Our Take on Milan and Baldanzi
It’s an interesting whisper since the Rossoneri will have to address the position whether Brahim Diaz stays or not. In addition, 3-4-2-1 might be in their future if Rafael Leao leaves. In any case, they should have multiple fallback plans in case Charles De Ketelaere never pans out. They are one of the few teams that play with a pure trequartista. The talent, who’s an old-fashioned player in that sense, should prioritize a team that uses such role while choosing his next destination.
