With Jackson Martinez in the bag, Milan President Silvio Berlusconi confirms offers for Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Geoffrey Kondogbia.
Porto President Pinto Da Costa confessed on Friday evening that “Jackson has chosen Milan” with the club prepared to pay his €35m release clause.
It is rumoured that the Colombian striker agreed a salary of €4m plus performance-related bonuses.
He is currently on international duty for the Copa America and could undergo a medical there.
The Rossoneri aren’t stopping there and have offered in the region of €28m to Monaco for midfielder Kondogbia, whose wage demands are €3m per season.
They are also in negotiations with PSG for Ibrahimovic, who could reportedly return to San Siro for €10m, though an even lower sum if defender Adil Rami was included in the deal.
“Ibrahimovic? Yes, we are seeing what happens. We hope he can return,” Berlusconi told Tele Lombardia.
“We need three strong strikers and we are looking for them on the market.”
Sky Sport Italia claims Ibra has requested €8m per year wages plus performance-related bonuses on a two-season contract.
Agent Mino Raiola is due to fly out to Qatar on Monday for talks with Paris Saint-Germain owners.
Sinisa Mihajlovic is not officially the Coach yet, as Pippo Inzaghi has not terminated his contract by mutual consent.
Nonetheless, Berlusconi was asked whether he would give Mihajlovic a Scudetto-winning squad.
“We hope so. There is great ambition for next season.”
The transfer strategy is thanks to the introduction of Thai investor Bee Taechaubol, who agreed to buy 48 per cent of the club for €500m.
“How is it going with Mr Bee? All good, although we’d do well even without him.”
