AC Milan have found Olivier Giroud’s replacement

Installed as number 9 at AC Milan since 2021, Olivier Giroud will leave the Italian club at the end of the season for the United States. A place will therefore become available for an attacker and the Milanese wants to invest this summer in his successor. In accordance Gazzetta dello Sport, the Rossoneri target Benjamin Šeško (20 years old). The forward, who joined Leipzig last year after being released by sister club RB Salzburg, has shown his qualities in recent weeks. The Slovenian has scored in the last five Bundesliga games and contributes greatly to the good dynamics of his team. In order to settle with the player, AC Milan must waive the player’s release clause.

According to the Italian newspaper, the clause currently amounts to 50 million euros. A price that does not scare the Milanese, seduced by the player’s athletic and young profile. The clause could rise to €75 million in the coming months for the player, who is under contract until 2028. If the player and Milan make a move this summer, Benjamin Šeško will be the most expensive transfer the Rossoneri have made.
