Milan have signed three new players, while saying goodbye, at least temporarily, to four men.
The Rossoneri went into the January transfer window in first place and despite being on a very tight budget, they managed to reinforce the team in three main areas where quantity and quality was much needed. Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara conducted the mercato.
Three new men were brought in, all with contracts until the end of the current season: Soualiho Meïté joined from Torino to give more options in midfield, while Mario Mandžukić arrived on a free transfer to give an alternative to Zlatan Ibrahimović (but to also play on the wings) and Fikayo Tomori came to allow Simon Kjær and Alessio Romagnoli to catch their breath.
The full list of arrivals can be found below, with the transfer fees as they were reported in the media:
| Player Name | Role | Age | Arrived From | Details (fees unconfirmed) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soualiho Meïté | Midfielder | 26 | Torino | Loan (€0.5m) + option to buy (€8m) |
| Mario Mandžukić | Forward | 34 | Free Agent | Permanent deal, six-month contract with option for another year |
| Fikayo Tomori | Defender | 23 | Chelsea | Loan + option to buy (€28m) |
A few players were sent away, allowing Milan to cut some costs. Léo Duarte, Mateo Musacchio and Andrea Conti were all surplus to requirements in defense and will try to get their careers back on track in their new clubs, while Lorenzo Colombo will be searching for more minutes in Serie B.
| Player Name | Role | Age | Went To | Details (fees unconfirmed) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Léo Duarte | Defender | 24 | İstanbul Başakşehir | Loan until June 2022 + option to buy |
| Andrea Conti | Defender | 26 | Parma | Loan + obligation to buy (€7m) under certain conditions |
| Lorenzo Colombo | Forward | 18 | Cremonese | Loan deal |
| Mateo Musacchio | Defender | 30 | Lazio | Permanent deal (€1m) |
Take Meite back!
Milos kerkez?
it was a huge mistake not to fix our right wing. Saelemaker or whats his name and castillejo are both mediocre.
I used to say that Saelemakers didn’t have any business in the attack. He is proving me wrong, give him time.
I think they are waiting to buy a strong winger in the summer. Typically the strongest players move the summer.
They are waiting for Thauvian and Vasquez contracts to expire. Then they will go for one of them on free transfer and the way things are going prob for the one with the smaler wage.
Okay Saelemakers isn’t Donadoni but I’m not sure you can put in the same boat as Castillejo.
What’s Milan policy on wingers? We fixed our left and now our right is shit
I’m completely stunned at the fact they think our rw is good to go. Absolutely fucking stunned at this ridiculous transfer policy. Not only rw but we needed a cam as well. Hakan and Diaz are still doubts to staying with Milan. A rw and cam was most needed. We still need a forward as well
Stunned we didn’t get right winger,surely maldini can see this. Or is it pioli who thinks saladmaker and samu goid enough, I hope not.
Man I have no clue. Like it was clear when we had suso and samu and it’s still clear with salemakers and samu that our rw is a huge problem. I watched Ajax this weekend and both neres and Antony were killing it against AZ. Both rw and both scored good goals
In Mandino’s defense, Samu can do better, saelemakers had done great, Brahim and rebic can play there.
Rebic, Leao, Samu, Saelemaekers, Diaz. The urgency was CB and ST.
Maaaan I gotta disagree hard asf here. Milan has zero creativity down the right side. Only reason we are ok is bc teams can’t stop theo, leao or rebic.
What do you mean by creativity? Milan’s only player good in 1v1 situation is Leao who is mostly used as a cf. Diaz is second best and he is used as an AM. This tells you that Pioli is not deploying the wingers as they are used in 433.
The way I see it, they attack the empty space and they hold the ball for the overlapping fullbacks or Ibra/Calha to get into position. Massively different from Suso/Samu or Delofeu/El92 who always tried to get into the box and shoot.
My guy if you field our best line up. You will have leao or rebic on the left. They are creative. On the right you have samu and salemakers! They are not creative, no end product, no speed. It takes forever for them to get into advanced spaces bc of this. Like I said, we can’t counter or even high press on the right side. They are too slow to help prevent counters as well. This in turn makes them stay higher up leaving calabria to defend alone. They don’t have the skills or speed to attack those spaces. You… Read more »
actually, the only reason why saladmaker and to some extent castipendejo keep playing is because they DO defend and press well. saladmaker cant beat opponents with his runs and dribblings and castipendejo has body of a ballerina but they are not slow and they indeed defend and press well
Lmao they are actually slow to be considered a winger. You say they press well? Not even close, they are constantly out of position. Watch closely how deep they come back to defend and that’s if they can defend a counter attack. The reason they hover closer to the middle is bc they don’t have the speed to counter attack from our final third. This is why calabria is always defending 1v1. Our counters usually start on the left 95% of the time bc the left side is actually able to out run and stretch the defense.
are u having fun? remember milan’s 2nd goal vs inter earlier this season? look how deep saladmaker dropped into his own half to pick up the ball and start the counter. look at the stats; he commits tackles and fouls more than he generates key passes almost every game. how’s that for not pressing? anyone who watches milan knows saladmaker helps the defence immensely. castipendejo IS garbage but no one can says he doesnt track back because he does. if u wanna blame winger for not pressing well blame leao not them. “You say they press well? Not even close,… Read more »
Lmao your picking out one instance lol I’m talking about as a whole lol that’s what your problem is. You pick and choose instances to fit your narrative while i look at the big picture. Whenever we are able to press, once they are bypassed they don’t track back leaving Calabria by himself to stall them. Your right about leao, he’s horrible almost all game on both sides of the field. He’s fast enough to track back and get back for a counter but he’s lazy asf with horrible stamina. On the right side they are too slow to do… Read more »
what part of “he commits tackles and fouls more than he generates key passes almost every game” dont u understand? u use whoscored, go check his stats. he tackles and draws fouls more than he generates key passes ALMOST EVERY GAME. if thats not showing the whole picture then i dont know what is. he even gets plenty yellows and even reds. no one with head screwed straight would say a winger who tackles more and gets red carded more than he provide passes to st doesnt press and defend much. i dont know if u watch milan games or… Read more »
Some say that the forwards are the first defenders. Saelemaekers is a good example
Agree saladmaker helps Calabria a lot.
correctamundo mate. u know ur football
When we play against teams with above average speed, you will find out just how out of position samu or salemakers really are. Calabria is very often left to defend alone. I hope it doesn’t happen this weekend but I want you to watch closely to his positioning especially after the ball is played beyond him on an opposing counter down his side. I really hope it doesn’t happen, I hope salemakers destroys the right side, but he just hasn’t done that
IMO, Leao and Rebic are our best wingers, our right is different but it’s not as useless as you think. Look at the image, those stats confirm that Milan uses both wings equally. All wingers are not assisting and scoring, that does not mean that they are ineffective, look at the middle, they are giving Ibra and Hakan all the time to shine. Our left has the best dribbles, our right has two similar box-to-box players who can change roles and add a spice of unpredictability. Rebic/Leao are inverted wingers, they have to wait for Theo for him to deliver… Read more »
I get what your saying but these are the stats that matter.
Samu and salemakers production stats are horrible. They have a combined 3 goals and they have zero assists between the 2. When going to other things like key passes per game, its barely at 1 for both of them. Yes they are hard workers for sure, but they don’t help in defense or offense. Watch closely in the next game and you will see if they are able to get up the field and back in time to help. They don’t have the speed plain and simple.
OK, Since I agree with 90 percent of your opinion let’s digest the stats in the attacking phase as reported by whoscored. Ante Rebic: 2 G – 3 A – 1.4 SPG – 1.2 KP. Rafa Leao: 5 G – 4 A – 1.5 SPG – 0.9 KP. Saelemak:: 2 G – 0 A – 0.9 SPG – 1.1 KP Castillejo: 1 G – 0 A – 0.6 SPG – 0.3 KP It’s no surprise that our left is clearly stronger and that Samu deserves to be benched, now, what I say is that the difference between Saelemaekers who is… Read more »
“whoscored reports Leao’s has two goals and three assists playing wide on the left, we could try and remember his exact positioning on the pitch when he did that, but that’s a job for Milan10 who’s memory is flawless.)”
so far leaonaldo plays lw 6 times: 2 goals and 3 assists and st 5 times: 3 goals and 1 assists. that means he can play both lw and st but he scores more as st (duh). king henry 2.0
Oh I completely agree with this here, I’m just pointing out ppl trying to say those 2 do the job that that role requires which they don’t. Every game the commentary team says they haven’t been able to get into the game. Unless they score that is what’s said every time. Yes we might not have the money but just like you said about using one of our lw on the right, I also said the same thing over and over. We should have tried it in the group stages when the last game meant nothing. Milan scouts need to… Read more »
Gotta disagree on that one. I think our fastest player(top speed) is Kalulu followed by Theo and Saelemaekers. But yes, we need an RW, the problem is that a good left-footed winger is an expensive primma donna in most cases. Like Milan10 says, Rebic played WC as an RW, it might be a good choice to try him there. CF: Ibra Mandzo LW: Leao/Hauge/Maldini AM: H10/Diaz RW: Rebic/Saelemaekers/Samu Plenty of options for rotation and back up for injuries. The problem is that Leao keeps scoring when deployed as a CF, so it makes no sense to change his role. Madzukic… Read more »
Trust me I’ve said many times we need to try rebic or hauge on the right. As for top speed, you have salemakers there?!? Leao, rebic, kalulu, Theo and maybe even hauge are faster. It’s prob a tie with samu. I’m fine with leao playing forward bc he’s too lazy to play the wing. I def prefer rebic on the wing and hauge on the other side. Also we don’t need a rw to be left footed as long as he can cross. Remember setting up goals is the same as getting a goal for a pure winger in a… Read more »
It’s crazy. A decent RW could be the difference in winning Serie A!
Sell Krunic for the 8m offered by Torino
Sell Samu for 12m to Spain.
Surely 20m is a good budget to work with.
At least give 3 or 4 million to get Thauvin early.
Lots of players would be delighted to have a chance at winning the league.
Draxler comes to mind too
Exactly! We are concerned with Keeping krunic when we should be giving maldini a chance to play instead. Look at the mistakes he’s made. That’s something I expect a youth player to make. I’d be fine if maldini made them but not a seasoned player like krunic. Draxler would be a good option for real.
I’m more impressed with the players we got rid of more than the players we signed. Too bad we couldn’t add Castellijo to that list.
I could do better job for salary he’s getting and I’m left footed.
Anyways looking forward to Tomori and mandzukic playing more.
Pioli please use Tonali in midfield with Bennacer and Kessie. Play Calhanoglu as trequartista with Ibra and Leao(Mandzukic/Rebic) upfront. That’s better than using Castellijo or Saelemaekers.
the thing is, if u look closely, since pioli arrived, milan have been relying on fast counterattacking strategy. look at ibra’s both goals vs inter in 1st derby this season for example; those were counterattack executed to perfection. like it or not, milan need fast wingers to implement that strategy. 4-3-1-2 is a very compact, defensive and pressing-oriented formation. with a very solid mf and good playmaker it can be used as possession based formation as well, like ance’s milan and lippi’s juve. but u cant really counter attack using both flanks with this formation so unless milan are already… Read more »
This Milan team is definitely built for 4312 or 442. In order to use 4231 the two wingers have to be producing goals and we only get that from the left wing with Leao, Rebic and Hauge as LWs and Theo overlapping. We barely get any goals from the right wing which makes Milan attack very predictable and easy to stop. The only solution for Pioli if he decides to stick with 4231 is to move either Leao, Rebic or Mandzukic to the RW. We cannot continue to use Castellijo and Saelemaekers there. They are not producing anything in assists… Read more »
no this milan definitely aint built for 4-3-1-2 or 4-4-2. milan have way too many wingers and way too few cm/mezz’ale for that. last season milan had 2 great cm paqueta and bona while this season milan only have krunic and ben. yes tonali and meite can be tried there but why try experimenting halfway through the season when everything is on the line? yes milan’s rw has been garbage but their double pivot, lw, am and lone st have been great so why change formation? thats gambling. just improve the rw and the problem’s solved. rebic, brahim, saladmaker, dalot,… Read more »
CM: Calhanoglu, Hauge, Krunic and Brahim Diaz. Using Hauge as a winger is stupid. Actually Hauge is probably the best player to fill in for Calhanoglu.
Same goes for using Krunic as a DM. He can’t defend and he never wins the ball back from opponents.
Milan have the players for 4312.
“Using Hauge as a winger is stupid. Actually Hauge is probably the best player to fill in for Calhanoglu” – ziontrain 2021
1) hauge has been a lw all his life so no, he’s not cm
2) hakan is pure am so no, being hakan’s reserve doesnt mean ur a cm
3) hauge is not am so no, he’s not proper replacement for hakan
hauge is lw, hakan is am, brahim is 2 footed winger/am. these guys are way too offensive to be balanced cm. only krunic is proper cm, a lcm to be exact.
I don’t know if you are being sarcastic or what, but to say hauge better played as CM, which he is never been tried at, than at his natural position as a Lw just absurd.
first of all, when all is said and done, this really was good mercato. a 6/10. meite hasnt settle yet but he clearly is solid back up for kessie. a big box to box cm who can be converted into solid dm, just like kessie was. tonali the modric 2.0 and especially bendondo are solid playmaking cm but like i said, a successful double pivot should consist of a pure dm and a playmaking cm. 2 dm would turn u into garbage park the bus team and 2 playmaking cm would turn u into madrid galacticos or brazil ‘82; pretty… Read more »
Milan will regret selling mussachio for just a million bucks ,we like to buy expensive and sell very cheap
Because he is in his last 5 months. He can’t cost 17 mil like four years ago
the real question is, is 1m + 1/2 yr of his salary saved really worth having one less reliable cb, especially when kjaer and gabbia are still injured? also, what if musa performs well with lazio?
Liverpool got kabak for on loan with option to buy, think we missed one there. Chelsea want 26 million for tomo, kabak will cost Liverpool 18 million?
His agent revealed that he wasn’t interested in Serie A a few months ago.
i think its clear from the very beginning that 28-30m for tomori means “no, chelsea aint selling and milan aint buying”. milan just wanted back up for the rest of the season before going all out on simakan or kabak in the summer. jokes on them, simakan is leipzig-bound and kabak joins lvpool now. stupid cheapskates
Yeah makes sense, hope maldini got some deals for summer lined up with verbal agreement in place! Suppose champions league qualification will decide who we get, the heirachy will have made that clear.
Maldini the key as Milan beat Juventus to signing of 17-year-old left-back – photo
Maldini is at it again as he sure knows what a great defender should look like especially a left back for that matter. This guy is just Theo Hernandez version 2 but with much more potential to be greater and I hope and believe he’ll be his backup come next season… Thumbs up to the best Technical Director!
Milos is nice addition… He can defend n can attack.. His playing style is far better than Theo…. In next couple of yrs he may the one of top 3 LB in Europe
I just read news about thauvins situation. His problem was with the coach villas boas and he’s about to resign. This could tempt him to staying at the club ♂️ this is why you don’t wait to get your actual targets
currently watching arsenal and pepe just scored fantastic solo run goal. he’s scored 2 goals since i praised him saying milan should try to get him. this guy is much better than thauvin
and he will probably cost a lot more. But I agree. Pepe will be great on the right. I heard milan is also looking at Douglas Costa
pepe 100% will cost a lot more but i read that arteta doesnt want him and many label him a flop so certainly he wont have 70m price tag anymore. maybe 30m or 40m at max. why the hell not right? he would be perfect for milan youth project: young, skillful and ex-lille. if milan choose 28 yr old thauvin or 29 yr old vazquez over players like pepe simply because the formers are much cheaper due to bosman rule then it really isnt youth project, its banter era galliani project a.k.a. project beggars banquet.
nazidis…nazidis…smh
What would you think about bringing in James Rodriguez? I think he is perfectly suited for serie A. Hes not as fast as he once was but hes technical and I think he would be perfect for our system. Almost like Rui Costa?
i’ve mentioned james so many times before i’ve lost count. like i said, milan should just raid madrid for players like james, hakimi, eder militao, vazquez, brahim etc because they and barca need to sell due to financial problems. hell, i read news today, apparently madrid are ready to sell vinicius. james would be perfect for milan; a world class am who can also play as rw. he can shoot and pass the ball so well, on par with hakan. i dont have time to watch everton nowadays but i did watch them earlier this season and james – calvert-lewin… Read more »
Look man, James is overrated, he has the talent of an exquisite 10, but the problem is his shitty attitude. He asks Real FREAKING Madrid not to be called at the end of the season, he affirms that he didn’t do that well at Bayern because of the weather FFS James, STFU. He even causes problems at Seleccion Colombia with his princess attitude. I have no doubts that if he arrived with hunger and eagerness to play he would be our perfect fix but nah, we already got a Niang, Suso, Balotelli, and didn’t work out for us. I would… Read more »
being overrated and having shitty attitude are 2 entirely different things. u definitely are not overrated if u played for real madrid AND bayern and if milan, man utd, inter and ance etc wanted u. look how good he is now with everton and i dont see ance complaining about his attitude. if he came to serie a he’d instantly be top 5 or even top 3 am or rw, thats for sure
Milan10, Ance already benched James for his shitty attitude… google it
i dont have to google it, i watch football on regular basis. james is benched lately because he just came back from nasty muscle injury which prevented him from playing for weeks and ance doesnt want to push him.

A torino reject scores two times more than Ibra in MLS. Leao is proving me wrong but Piatek, Cutrone Suso and El92 were also one season wonders. Rino was the best thing since Allegri left, he is doing good at Napoli too. Pioli did ten times better so what?
Why don’t you mention that James asked to be benched at Madrid? Doesn’t help your case uh?

Lmao did you guys read that pioli excluded hauge fr the EL squad lmao but he took krunic lmfao!!!
Allegri had Matri, Seedorf had Emanuelson, Rino had Borini/Kalinic Pioli has Krunic.
Jesus Christ I guess every coach has to have a moron on the damn team! This is a negative message to hauge for sure
What a joke!!
Hauge has been great in EL.
It’s the right place for him to be playing
Exactly! This is sending the absolute worst message to hauge. Pioli is preferring to play a person like krunic who gives up at least 2 chances to the other team each game, and has no future at Milan, over him. That is a disgrace!
In an interview a pioli said “krunic has a pair of asses to die for”
When was this lol that man really loves krunic for some reason
LMAO, check the latest post on AC Milan’s Instagram, Ibra and Calhanoglu lifting weights and Samu tying some shoelaces. FFS Samu…
BREAKING NEWS
Paqueta a.k.a. paquelme showed his class again on the pitch by scoring kaka-esque winning goal for lyon vs dijon. he’s also 2nd highest rated player of last nite’s match. damn he’s good
such a shame that milan foolishly let young gems like locatini, paquelme and andriy silva go
I know it would he foolish to disrupt the flow they found with 4231 but right now we have perfect set of players for 442 (which was our turnover formation with Pioli) with Rebić/Mandžo as SS and Ibra/Leao as CF. Hauge and Salesmaker as LW and RW, with Bennassie the unbreakable duo in center… Sh’t forgot about Hakan…
Donnarumma won’t leave, but I have nightmares about Juve giving Hakan the money he is asking for.
If he leaves, I would like to see 433.
Leao/Hauge—Ibra/Madzo—Rebic/Saele
De Paul/Pobega—-Bennacer/Tonalli
Kessie/Meite
Lmfao once again Milan move too fucking slow! Brobbey looks like he’s about to join Leipzig from Ajax on a free transfer! I swear to god this was the time to get a young forward who has the tools to be a beast! Speed, strength, ball skills, aerial threat! Someone to really learn from zlatan and we look set to miss out again on a player we need! Szoboszlai, simakan and now brobbey lmao. I guess Milan plan on just using zlatan and mandzukic until they are 80!
100%
These next 6 months were perfect time to bed in a young striker. Learn from ibra and take over next year, have ibra as backup then.
Eventually his body will not cope anymore.
Thought ibra was the perfect mentor for Jovic, he would respect him. Now Jovic is back scoring.
Also we don’t need to be bedding in a new striker when we are in champs league
Exactly! Jesus Christ it simply doesn’t make sense. We literally were linked with every defender known to man and clearly decided not to fix the areas that are in real danger. A cf, rw and cam! I told ppl we should have gotten a young forward before zlatan bc zlatan was a free agent that we could have gotten at any time. Not only that but agreeing to zlatan before renewing donnaruma was ALWAYS goin to raise raiolas wage demand for him. It was a obvious tactic. As for a cam. I again said since last year that we need… Read more »
The order of priorities this window were
1. Kessie backup
2. Ibra backup
3. Right wing, replace Samu
4. CB, we actually had a lot of options
I really hope Kalulu gets more playing time with Tomori arrival. He looks a world class prospect
Also want Gabbia to continue his development
If Tomori wants to go home in summer, what will that achieve?
We need to be giving are young stars confidence and opportunity.
Especially if we are trying to attract young stars to join us
Guys is tonali loan or permanent transfer?
Wel, I’d say it’s a permanent transfer.
its a loan with option to buy. lets pray to hell that milan will be smart enough to exercise their buy option despite tonali’s so so performance so far
“Milan transfer market: the winter session has only closed few days ago but at the Rossoneri offices, they are thinking about next summer. So many buy-options are at stake, only one could remain. A particularly rich transfer session ended at Milan. Faced with the immobility of the other big-name clubs in the Serie. the Rossoneri scored the shots of Tomori (for the defense) and Meite (for the midfield), going to reinforce a squad that has already shown itself to be competitive in this first part of the season. Two loans, with consequent option to buy rights, in addition to those… Read more »
Who told Diretta Goal that we can only redeem one? Bah. Tonali will stay, no matter what. Tomori is eager to stay, maybe Maldini can work on a paid loan with an obligation to buy in the worst-case scenario. Dalot is cheap, he can be redeemed as we need a backup LB. Diaz depends on what Madrid accomplishes in their season. They are lacking on good players, it’s possible that Zidane will be against his sale, but perhaps Maldini can extend the loan for another season.

I dont think people realise how scary next summer will be.
We have so many short term players on loan etc, plus we need reinforcements.
No money available, it wont be fun
lets just hope that milan finish top 4 so they’ll get ucl participation fee, which will be ample and significant. i also read that cvc capital partner consortium is gonna buy 10% of serie a’s stake for 1.7 bill and in 1st 5 yrs clubs will get their fair share of the revenue (milan will get 103 m). but the problem is, there’s still disagreement among the serie a clubs and between them and consortium. i read that they will put it to a vote. freaking italians and their bureaucracy. 1st stadiums and now this
No one told me anything, it’s all speculation of the media, all clickbait misinformation. Read Tomori’s interview one more time, he was hyped to join this team. I stated that Gazidis is unlikely spend more than 80m, and I never said we will keep all the loaners. Dalot and Diaz are too expensive, Tonalli is borderline stupidly priced and Tomori worth every penny. So yeah, if Madrid can have a one year of transition, Milan can also do it. Tomori and Finally are priorities. If Madzukic works and Ibra doesn’t break a leg our attack is ready. Now if Calhanoglu… Read more »
