Italian giants AC Milan have set sights on securing the services of Switzerland international of Cameroonian descent Breel Embolo in the ongoing summer transfer window.
The Rossoneri are keen on strengthening their squad for the upcoming 2025/26 football campaign. The Swiss-Cameroonian attacker is being considered as a backup option to Juventus star Dušan Vlahović, who remains the top priority for San Siro club.
However, the transfer demands from both the Turin club and the 28-year-old forward have scared Milan off.
Vlahović’s salary at Juventus is €12 million per year, making him a significant burden on the club’s wage bill. The potential departure of the Serbian striker could help Juventus ease its financial strain.
Milan, in turn, has started talks with Embolo, who would cost the club €15 million—significantly cheaper than his Serbian counterpart.
At the moment, negotiations are still in the early stages, but Embolo himself has expressed a desire to move to Serie A.
