Milan Finds Its New #9 in Füllkrug After Injury Woes

AC Milan’s hunt for a central striker has finally culminated in the signing of Niclas Füllkrug from West Ham United on loan, with a purchase option of 12 million euros. The Rossoneri were left in dire need of a goalscorer following the injury setbacks of Santiago Giménez and Christopher Nkunku.

Füllkrug’s Immediate Contribution Expected

“AC Milan are delighted to announce that Niclas Füllkrug is joining the club on loan from West Ham United, with an option to buy. He will wear jersey number 9,” the club announced. Speaking at a press conference, manager Massimiliano Allegri reassured fans that Füllkrug would be available for the crucial match against Cagliari, scheduled for Friday at 8:45 p.m. Füllkrug, however, is eager to rediscover his scoring touch, having failed to notch a goal in nine games for West Ham this season.
