Milan's Latest Transfer Updates: Karetsas and Hojbjerg
Konstantinos Karetsas of Genk has emerged as a prime candidate for the attacking midfield position. Reputable sources like Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moretto have reported that the Rossoneri are engaged in discussions with the player's representatives, though a formal offer to Genk has not yet been made.
Further reports from Corriere dello Sport and Sky Sport DE confirm that Borussia Dortmund also holds a strong interest in the Greek international. According to Italian newspapers, Dortmund's initial €25 million bid was rejected by Genk, who are seeking a minimum of €35 million for the player.
Another target for Milan this summer is Marseille midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, a former Tottenham Hotspur player. Sky Sport's Gianluca Di Marzio has reported that the Danish international is available for transfer.
However, the report suggests that Milan is not in immediate haste to submit an offer to Marseille. Coach Amorim intends to thoroughly evaluate his current squad before making any definitive transfer decisions.
