AC Milan Target Nicolò Tresoldi as Inter Join the Race for Club Brugge Striker
AC Milan are reportedly keeping a close eye on Club Brugge striker Nicolò Tresoldi, with owner Gerry Cardinale keen to remain informed about the forward’s future ahead of the next transfer windows. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Rossoneri could consider making a move in January or next summer, although no agreement has been reported.
The 22-year-old has attracted growing attention after scoring a hat-trick against Inter Milan at San Siro in the Champions League. His performance added to the interest surrounding a player who, according to reports, has supported Milan since childhood.
What It Means
Milan’s reported strategy is to monitor Tresoldi’s situation closely and be ready to act if an opportunity emerges. His connection to the Rossoneri could prove useful in a potential pursuit, but it would not guarantee a deal with Club Brugge.
The Belgian club are understood to value the striker at more than €50 million. Inter are also reportedly interested, while Arsenal, Barcelona, Atlético Madrid, Bayern Munich and Tottenham have been linked with the forward. Competition from clubs with significant financial resources could make any move difficult for Milan.
Background
Born in 2004 in Cagliari, Tresoldi developed in Germany before moving to Club Brugge. He has represented Germany at Under-21 level, although his international future has also attracted attention in Italy.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Tresoldi has scored 32 goals in 69 appearances for Club Brugge and has recorded 16 goals in 27 games for Germany’s Under-21 side. The report also states that Roma saw a €35 million offer rejected in August and that Brugge have a contract with the striker running until June 2029.
Tresoldi’s father, Emanuele, has publicly spoken about his son’s support for Milan and his dream of playing for the club. That preference could become a factor if negotiations develop, but Brugge would still need to agree to a transfer.
What Happens Next
For now, Milan’s reported interest centres on monitoring the player rather than a confirmed bid. Cardinale and the club’s recruitment team are expected to keep track of developments as they assess whether to pursue the striker in January or during the summer window.
With a long-term contract and several clubs reportedly interested, Club Brugge are in a strong position to demand a substantial fee. Any move will depend on Milan’s willingness to meet the Belgian club’s valuation, the level of competition and Tresoldi’s own preferences.
No transfer has been agreed, and the striker remains a Club Brugge player.
