AC Milan are reportedly not done in the transfer window, with Jesus Corona, Romain Faivre and Tiemoue Bakayoko still said to be on our shortlist.
The Rossoneri have made one new signing already this week with Pietro Pellegri joining from Monaco on an initial loan deal, and so he joins the likes of Fikayo Tomori, Fode Ballo-Toure, Mike Maignan, Alessandro Florenzi and Olivier Giroud at the club as a summer recruit.

While that in itself is a significant recruitment push, and a needed one given our return to the Champions League as well as trying to compete domestically, it seems there is still business to be done for Milan.
As per MilanNews, Porto’s Jesus Corona is said to be on our transfer radar, but with a touted €15m valuation from the Portuguese giants and with Milan said to be offering €10m plus bonuses, it remains to be seen if a deal can be concluded.
Further, Sky Sport Italia, as noted by MilanNews, also report that Bernardo Silva, Willian and Pablo Sarabia are all not of interest to Milan, but Brest’s Romain Faivre and Yacine Adli are and so time will tell if deals can be done for either or both.
It’s noted that Faivre could cost around €15m, while Milan will try to sign Adli regardless of whether or not we sign an attacking midfielder.
Meanwhile, as for Bakayoko, MilanNews, via Sky Sport Italia, report that the Rossoneri want to conclude a deal for Bakayoko on Thursday, which could involve a €500,000 fee for the season-long loan, and an option to buy set at €20m.
The report also adds that an agreement hasn’t yet been reached with Chelsea over the deal and so that might take some time still, while Bakayoko’s return could signal an exit for Tommaso Pobega.
It seems Milan have spread the net pretty far in search of adding some of the missing pieces to this squad, and so it remains to be seen which individuals stick and emerge as genuine targets in the latter stages of the summer transfer window.
