Frontline recruitment review: Vlahovic is not signed to become the biggest bead in Milan s summer window

[In-depth analysis of AC Milan's forward signings this summer]

Throughout the summer transfer window, AC Milan has always listed the strengthening of the center position as a top priority. There were signs that coach Allegri lacked full trust in Santiago Gimenes, who was introduced from Feyenoord for more than €30 million earlier this year. Then-director Igli Tare even publicly proposed the idea of ​​exchanging Dovbik with Rome, who had almost no chance to play under Gasperini. This public operation from the senior director seemed quite puzzling, but in the end Gimenes' unwillingness to leave Milan was the upper hand. Although he is currently experiencing a trough in his form, including obvious mistakes in Bologna, Allegri continues to give him encouragement and trust.

Looking back, if Gimenes exchanged Dorfbik at that time, it would undoubtedly be a double mistake: it not only indirectly helps Roma solve the front line problem, but also may rebirth Gimenes in a more suitable tactical environment. In fact, no matter whether Gimenes stays or not, Duchamp Frajovich is the most important goal that Milan should strive for, and the performance at the beginning of the new season has fully confirmed this.

Throughout the summer window, Milan has always been paying close attention to the Serbian scorer's updates in Juventus. Juventus general manager Damian Comoli once hoped to get rid of his annual salary burden of up to 12 million euros, which also allowed Tare and Fulani to see the opportunity to introduce low prices. However, Juventus is firm in his attitude: he insists on the transfer fee of 20 million euros, and finally chooses to retain the players until the end of the contract, and retains this forward ace for coach Tudor.

This decision is receiving returns. Vlahovic has scored two goals in the league in the new season, and all of them are on the bench. Although the national derby starter against Inter Milan failed to make a contribution, in the Champions League match against Dortmund, he came on as a substitute when he was behind 1-2, scored two goals independently and contributed an assist, helping the team finally tied the strong opponent 4-4. Vlahovic's ability was never questioned, the problem was that his characteristics were not fully utilized during the Allegri period. If he joins Milan, he will be expected to be reborn under the new environment and new motivation. Unfortunately, the Red and Black Legion failed to decisively advance the transaction, and it is almost impossible to introduce it again. Even Inter Milan, who has recently contacted its team, will face arduous challenges if they want to sign the scorer without signing.
