As AC Milan contemplates potential reinforcements for their attacking lineup this January, financial realities loom large over the decision-making process. Reports indicate that the Rossoneri’s management is actively scouting for a striker to enhance their goal-scoring capabilities, but any acquisition hinges on the successful sale of current players. The club has limited financial resources and must carefully navigate the delicate balance between strengthening the squad and maintaining financial health.

The current frontrunner in Milan’s striker search appears to be Jonathan David, whose impressive performances in Ligue 1 have captivated the attention of the scouting department. The Canadian international brings a mix of speed and finishing ability, which could potentially elevate Milan’s offensive threats. However, the club’s ability to make a move is contingent upon offloading a player or two to meet UEFA’s Financial Fair Play regulations. Notable candidates expected to be on the chopping block include:

  • Brahim Diaz – A potential loan option could free up funds.
  • Olivier Giroud – Depending on his future plans, he could attract interest.
  • Divock Origi – Struggling for minutes, he may seek a new challenge.
