Report: Milan to go American

Milan are increasingly likely to bring an American investor on board, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

According to the newspaper, a deal could be finalised ‘in the next few hours’, although the identity of the new board member remains a mystery.

Furthermore, it is ‘unlikely’ they will be in place by early next week, when Milan meet UEFA’s Adjudicatory Chamber to learn their Europa League fate.

Mediaset Premium speculated on Thursday that the investor in question was John J Fisher [pictured], who has shares in Celtic and San Jose Earthquakes.

However, the figure is believed to have connections with Goldman Sachs, while they will be a topic of discussion during the Rossoneri’s board meeting on Friday.

As for the €32m capital increase due, La Gazzetta expects the money to be processed before the June 28 deadline.
