Milan may face bidding war for Dovbyk, several clubs interested

AC Milan’s transfer market woes continue, particularly in the search for a striker, with recent developments throwing a spanner in the works.

The negotiations for Bayern Munich’s Joshua Zirkzee have hit a snag in the past few hours, casting doubt over his potential move to Milan.

“Things have slowed down considerably,” a club insider revealed, as quoted by La Gazzetta dello Sport.

This setback is causing Milan to re-evaluate their transfer targets and consider alternative options.

One name that has surfaced is Dnipro-1’s Artem Dovbyk. However, the competition for Dovbyk’s signature is heating up, with two other clubs also showing interest.

The fear is that a bidding war might ensue, driving up his price and complicating Milan’s efforts to secure his services.

“We’re aware of the interest from other clubs, and it could lead to an auction,” a source close to the negotiations stated, according to Tuttosport.

With the transfer deadline approaching, Milan’s management faces mounting pressure to strengthen their attack and bolster their chances for the upcoming season.
