Quality Striker Search: Milan Meet ‘Super Agent’ Mendes

The search for a quality striker continues for Italian giants AC Milan and that prompted a meeting with ‘Super Agent’ Jorge Mendes on Tuesday evening

Milan officials and Mendes met to discuss potential transfers for the trio of Diego Costa, Radamel Falcao and Renato Sanches.

Sky Sport Italia photographed directors Massimiliano Mirabelli and Marco Fassone in Porto Cervo, Sardinia, which was where they met.

The Italian club’s interest in Portuguese youngster Renato Sanches is an open secret with the midfielder confirming that AC Milan was “an interesting option.” but they are yet to agree any deal with his German Club (Bayern Munich).

AC Milan’s search for a leading marksman continue to gather pace with Diego Costa and Radamel Falcao possible target. Jorge Mendes represents both players.

Brazilian-born Spanish striker Diego Costa is on his way out of Chelsea due to his poor relationship with manager Antonio Conte. His preferred destination is Atletico Madrid but he might have to wait till January to secure a move as a result of the Spanish club’s transfer ban.

Costa could move to another club, AC Milan inclusive, this summer before joining Atletico in 2018.

Colombian striker Radamel Falcao is another striking option but he only signed a new deal with his French club AS Monaco last month. The 31-year old recovered from injury and loss of form to lead his club to the Ligue 1 title and Champions League semi-finals.

Torino star Andrea Belotti and Borussia Dortmund forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang also remain targets but they will have to pay a lot of money to secure any transfer.
