It was long expected that Antonio Conte would move on after winning Serie A with Napoli, including Juventus, he has at the top of his wish list, but after promises of increased budgets for players, the Italian manager is said to have calmed down.

Yunus Musah – Napoli’s goal

Musah arrived in Milan with high expectations, and the US international has shown glimpses of his potential, although his role has been sporadic. His youth, physique, and versatility make him an attractive choice for any ambitious project. Conte, who has achieved success with Napoli, aims to strengthen several areas of the team and believes Musah’s dynamic would fit perfectly into his style of play.

While Milan are not ruling out a sale, they will not facilitate a transfer without a suitable offer. The Milan management appreciates the young midfielder’s development, but understands that with a solid offer, they can open the door for other types of players in the squad. So far, no official sum has been put on the table, but the transfer fee is estimated at around 20 million euros.
