AC Milan and AS Roma in quick negotiations for Christopher Nkunku

AC Milan have been looking for attackers, this entire month, as Santiago Gimenez hasn’t worked out in Milan. Niclas Fullkrug was signed by Milan at the start of this month. Milan also want to bring in Jean-Philippe Mateta before the end of this month but someone will have to be sold. (read more here)

Milan would ideally sell Gimenez, but he is injured which makes it close to impossible to do so. This has lead them to looking into anyone else they can sell. New signing, Christopher Nkunku is someone who could make a move according to Il Romanista, as Roma and Milan open talks.

Roma and Milan only have two days to complete the deal for Nkunku so talks are on rapid fire. This is because this deal triggers Mateta, as Milan can’t bring him in until someone leaves. However, if a deal for Mateta is put on pause until the summer this deal would fall through.

Roma want a deal for Nkunku as they have been looking to add attacking power all summer. They managed to sign Donyell Malen this summer, but they don’t plan on stopping there. They tried to sign Kamaldeen Sulemana from Atalanta but the deal has also fallen through. (read more here)

Nkunku could be a smart way for Roma to cap off this month for Roma. This comes as Roma look to push for a Champions League finish at a minimum, and potentially a title. Nkunku could also play multiple positions something which Roma will be fans of.
