AC Milan have reportedly made an enquiry for Udinese striker Lorenzo Lucca as an option to add more firepower to the squad.
The Rossoneri are short of options in that department currently, with Santiago Gimenez the sole frontman available to Massimiliano Allegri to lead the line.

It comes after Tammy Abraham’s loan deal came to an end, Luka Jovic departed after his contract expired and talented youngster Francesco Camarda has joined Lecce on loan for the upcoming campaign.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Milan have made contact for Lucca as they look to explore the potential for a deal and whether or not it would be a feasible move for the club.
It’s added that Napoli have been heavily linked with the move for the 24-year-old already, but with no agreement in place to sign him as of yet, the Rossoneri could still have a chance to land his signature this summer.
Lucca has had quite the career thus far with spells at Pisa, Ajax and Udinese, scoring 14 goals and providing two assists in 36 appearances last season with the latter.
That form has seemingly alerted Milan to him as a possible option to bolster our attacking options, with Allegri certainly in need of adding more goals to the side ahead of his first campaign back in charge.
Time will tell if a deal can be done or not as the club will have to switch focus elsewhere if they’re not happy with the possible transfer fee and terms of a transfer, but Lucca appears to be on our shortlist for now as a good fit for the system and style of play that Allegri intends to implement.
Further, there is arguably a trend developing in Milan’s transfer work so this summer having already completed a move for Samuele Ricci to strengthen our midfield, with the club perhaps looking at younger Italian talent to build a new core for our squad in the coming years.
