Milan have several players out on loan and believe most of them will be bought out, increasing their financial firepower for the summer. The most convincing one has been Alex Jimenez so far. Bournemouth are likely to redeem hi regardless of any clause, Calciomercato reports.
The obligation to sign him permanently will come into effect if he stars in 50 percent of the matches this season. It’s bound to happen. He has featured 22 times, starting in 16 tilts. The Rossoneri will pocket €19.5M plus €5.3M add-ons down the line. They’ll give half of the profit to Real Madrid, as he’s their youth product. They had signed him for €5M.
Tommaso Pobega and Alvaro Morata are only technically out on loan. Bologna will purchase the midfielder for €7M, while Como will shell out €15M for the latter. Milan had to pay €5M to convince Galatasaray to let him transfer early. They’ll record a €5M ‘plusvalenza’ on an aging player.
The most profitable piece is potentially Samuele Chukwueze. He’s regular at Fulham,l and has posted 3 goals and 4 assists in 13 appearances. The Cottagers have a €28M option to buy and are seriously thinking about it. Instead, the Rossoneri might have to find new homes for Yunus Musah and Ismael Bennacer, who aren’t doing as well at Atalanta and Dinamo Zagreb.
Lorenzo Colombo and Filippo Terracciano will transfer permanently automatically for €10M and €3.5M, respectively, if Genoa and Cremonese avoid relegation.
Our Take on the Milan Loanees
The big kahuna is Chukwueze, as the haul would be impressive with that income. The only regret is probably Jimenez, who would have had good chances of being at least a rotational piece for them this season.
