The Italian giants are on course for their lowest-placed finish for a decade as they sit ninth in Serie A and six points outside the Champions League qualification spots.

In particular, Milan have struggled to find a consistent source of goals outside of midfielder Tijani Reinders and top scorer Christian Pulisic, who has netted 15 times in all competitions.

Pulisic has already matched his tally from last season, having joined from Chelsea for €22 million in 2023 after a disappointing time in England.

The American has enjoyed a new lease on life in Italy and Milan are hoping to build on a successful formula with a new cut-price signing for another Premier League star who desperately needs a change of scenery.

Having been linked with Chelsea’s Noni Madueke this week, it appears wingers will be top of the agenda for Milan, with Manchester City’s Jack Grealish the latest target supposedly on the hitlist for Sergio Conceicao’s side.

City set for huge loss on Grealish transfer

Various reports in the UK have linked Grealish with a move away from Manchester City this summer, with the 29-year-old having fallen out of favour in recent months under Pep Guardiola.

Grealish has made just six Premier League starts this season and the once British record transfer could now leave the Premier League champions for €40 million, which would represent a loss of €60m for City.

Milan are said to prefer a loan move for Grealish and City would be willing to facilitate his exit, having also seen Kyle Walker leave on loan to the Italian side in January this year.

Teams in England could still make a move for Grealish but a switch abroad could be seen as the best chance for Grealish to play regularly for a good side and try and force his way into Thomas Tuchel’s England squad for the World Cup next summer.
