Sky: AC Milan eye Amine Adli move, Castillejo exit

AC Milan are reportedly eyeing a move for Toulouse youngster Amine Adli, while Samu Castillejo could be set for an exit this summer.

The Rossoneri are preparing for a return to the Champions League next season, and that in turn means we must build a squad capable of being competitive both at home and in Europe.

As per respected Sky Sport Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, via MilanNews, it’s reported that Castillejo could be on the move this summer amid interest from Real Betis, while Adli has emerged as a potential replacement on the right wing.

Castillejo, 26, has managed just 10 goals and 13 assists in 108 appearances for Milan since joining us in 2018, and while he has been a key figure in our push to return to Europe’s top table, it’s questionable as to whether he has the quality to produce consistently at the top level.

In turn, if a bid did arrive from Betis, it will be intriguing to see what the Milan management do.

Further, Di Marzio reports that Adli has emerged as a target for the Rossoneri, with the youngster impressing for Toulouse last season.

The 21-year-old bagged eight goals and eight assists in 36 appearances for the Ligue 2 outfit, and while he’s a similar type of player to Castillejo and Suso before him with a preference to play on the right side and cut in with his favoured left foot, he could be a talent that emerges as a long-term solution in that role.

Time will tell if the pieces fall into place for this switch to happen for Milan in the coming months, but it appears as though Castillejo could be heading for the exit door before the new campaign gets underway.
