AC Milan have been linked with a move for Domenico Berardi many times in the past few years, but just when it looked like the ship had finally sailed a report this morning has suggested a January move is possib.e
La Gazzetta dello Sport claim that Milan could sign a right winger during the winter window because of the doubt surrounding Samuel Chukwueze, who has so far failed to repay the €20m (plus €8m bonuses) investment.
This is why reflections are underway, because while Christian Pulisic is in excellent form and has been since the start of last season, there is no reliable back-up. Paulo Fonseca would also like a solution off the bench that allows Pulisic moved to the role of attacking midfielder.
The names of Andreas Skov Olsen (Club Brugge), Noa Lang (PSV Eindhoven) and Ismaila Sarr (Crystal Palace) are on the list but we must add that of Berardi too, who has recovered from an injury to his Achilles tendon.
He knows that the last chance to make a big move might well be here after Sassuolo’s relegation to Serie B, and if a club like Milan were to come calling he would not say no. He admitted in an interview recently that the Neroverdi would let him go on a permanent deal or even maybe a loan with obligation.
Thus, for the Rossoneri it could become a convenient operation to add a player in his prime who knows Serie A well, has 122 goals (plus 83 assists) in the Italian top flight, and would help the squad lists by being a homegrown player.
