Antonio Conte could try to sign Tottenham star Dejan Kulusevski if he moves to AC Milan
According to Calciomercatoweb.it, Spurs boss Antonio Conte could try to sign Tottenham star Dejan Kulusevski if he becomes the manager of AC Milan for next season.
The player, who has been in fine form this season, has reportedly caught the attention of Italian giants AC Milan, who are said to be eyeing up the player as part of a potential deal for Spurs boss Antonio Conte.
After a good start to the season, Milan suffered a mid-season slump that has seen them fall out of the title race for Serie A. However, a win against Tottenham in the Premier League would have given them the right boost.
The future of Antonio Conte on the Tottenham bench is decidedly in the balance. The coach has repeatedly expressed his desire to return to coaching in Serie A, and Milan is following in his footsteps.
After a series of seasons and last year’s Scudetto triumph, the Rossoneri could be looking to change the current coach Stefano Pioli, and they have set their sights on Dejan Kulusevski as the perfect addition to their squad.
The right wing has been an area of concern for the Italian giants for quite some time now. The Swedish winger would be a perfect fit for AC Milan and Antonio Conte already knows what to expect from the player.
However, there are obstacles, mainly of an economic nature. Tottenham are unlikely to let their star winger leave for a cheap price. Conte’s exit is realistic but Kulusevski leaving the club does not seem like an option.
For Tottenham, losing Kulusevski would be a huge blow. His performances have been a key factor in the club’s success and it’s no coincidence that the team has really struggled when the former Juventus man has missed due to an injury.
