Domenico Berardi has often been linked with moves away from Sassuolo and AC Milan have regularly been an interested party, so January’s interest is no shock.
This has been a weird season by all accounts at Milan and it seems things could get slightly weirder in the January mercato, which is the last thing that anyone needs at present.
There have been ongoing suggestions that the Rossoneri will look to improve their depth in mid-season and this mainly involves the search for another midfielder and perhaps some defensive reinforcements. It has rarely, however, been suggested that another attacker will be looked at, until now.
The Diavolo are supposedly considering a move for Berardi – who has a contract until 2027 – but at a significantly lower price than what has previously been considered acceptable by the Neroverdi.
In fact, the side hope to sell him by the summer, so a loan with an option to buy could be possible in the upcoming mercato. However, there is still a dream of receiving €20 million for the winger who has been deemed the ‘king of the market’.
Fiorentina are ‘seriously considering’ a move, as are Roma and both will look to contest any move from the Rossoneri. Despite not being in the picture currently, Juventus are also a party of interest.
