Expectations for AC Milan signing a new holding midfielder in the upcoming mercato are rising, and they are evaluating the prospect of signing a player from a side threatened with relegation. 

Ahead of the summer, reports have been filled by the suggestions of central defenders and strikers. However, as we approach the window, reports of a new holding midfielder arriving are increasing in numbers.

Milan’s current midfield situation is comfortable, and there is enough depth to get by. However, persistent injuries mean that there has to be a greater level of coverage to support the continuing problems. Therefore, they will enter the market for a new No.6.

As Calciomercato.it report, a name that is becoming a prospect to the Rossoneri’s management is Daniel Boloca from Sassuolo. The Neroverdi are stumbling towards relegation to Serie B, but Boloca’s performances have not been worthy of a relegation-threatened side, let alone a side that falls victim to the drop.

Born in 1998, the holding midfielder has a lot of room for growth, which could be further aided by a move to Milan, and for a fee of €15 million, he provides an intriguing opportunity that fits the mould of what the Diavolo want in the midfield toolbox.
