Milan to challenge Juventus for Lille star ‘launched by Fonseca’
Serie A giants prepare to do battle for 21-year-old forward
Sven Botman, a defender for Lille, is also being monitored by the Rossoneri
AC Milan are reportedly ready to challenge Juventus for the signing of Lille forward Jonathan David, who has been in impressive form for the Ligue 1 champions this season.
The 21-year-old Canada international has scored 12 goals in 28 league appearances for Lille this season, and his performances have attracted the attention of several top European clubs.
According to Calciomercato, Milan are particularly keen on signing David, and they are prepared to rival Juventus for his signature.
The Rossoneri are in need of a new striker, as Zlatan Ibrahimovic is now 40 years old and nearing the end of his career.
David would be a good fit for Milan, as he is a young and talented player with a lot of potential. He is also a versatile forward who can play in a variety of positions.
In addition to David, Milan are also reportedly interested in signing Lille defender Sven Botman.
The 22-year-old Dutchman has been one of the best defenders in Ligue 1 this season, and he would be a valuable addition to Milan’s squad.
Milan are currently second in Serie A, and they are hoping to challenge Juventus for the title this season. The signing of David and Botman would give them a major boost in their quest to win their first Scudetto since 2011.
David has been linked with a move to the Premier League in the past, but it now seems that he is more likely to join either Milan or Juventus.
It will be interesting to see which club David eventually signs for, but it is clear that he is one of the most sought-after young players in Europe.
