The Slovenian from Leipzig would be the Devil’s most expensive shot ever. Clause of 50 million and up: the club negotiates and is ready for investment
The talented players make everyone agree: this is the reason why Milan, already at the beginning of May, is ready to make a move on Benjamin Sesko. Even before defining the new coach: anyone would be happy to have a young and strong center forward in the team. Seeing the club busy on the market, with ample spending capacity and immediately working on one of the most popular players on the international scene, would also make the Rossoneri fans happy. The Curva Sud, empty on Saturday evening ten minutes from the end, once again full and celebrating a goal from Sesko: it is not a transfer fantasy but much, much more. A concrete track, a track on which Milan is ready to accelerate.

The Leipzig striker has the right profile to fill the void in the area: Giroud is in fact a former Rossoneri player, Jovic has the characteristics to be an excellent assistant. Thus, after years of research, Milan seems to have finally found the striker of the future: Sesko is twenty years old but has already given numerous demonstrations of his qualities in front of goal. Exactly twelve in this Bundesliga season with Leipzig, two in the Champions League and the same number in the German Cup. Another 29 goals scored in Austria against Salzburg. The club’s strategy is clear: focus on young people and enhance their qualities in the Rossoneri. If it is worth it, in anticipation of strengthening its technical assets, Milan is willing to bet heavy sums. In this specific case it would be a low-risk investment: Sesko is more than a promise.
history

Benjamin is the most similar to the Rossoneri center forwards of recent years, he has centimeters (195) and physical strength like Giroud and Ibra: broad and strong shoulders are needed to handle the responsibility of the Rossoneri attack. And to take on the pressure that will weigh on the most expensive purchase in the club’s history: Sesko will hardly cost less than Bonucci, purchased for 42 million in the summer of 2017. The release clause included in the contract with Leipzig is 50 million but the value it is destined to rise further, up to a maximum of 75, based on the performance at the end of the season. If Benjamin keeps up the pace – he has scored in each of the last five league games – he will reach the full price. Milan has already taken to the field and will negotiate on the figure. Strengthened by his own economic availability: a large percentage of the summer budget will be invested in the new 9. On the salary it will not be difficult to make ends meet: Sesko’s salary is in line with the Rossoneri parameters.
competition

With the last shot, Milan aims to cross the finish line before the large European competition. It would also be useful to declare the race closed before the European Championship windows open: with Benjamin’s goals, Slovenia has once again qualified for the final phase after 23 years. Sesko presents himself as one of the jewels of the future and Milan are working to try to put him in the safe. In addition to the coach, the club is active on other fronts. The CEO Furlani had admitted it days ago: “We’ve been working on the next championship for some time. We have demanding fans and we want to make them happy.” Those on Saturday evening at San Siro were in a completely different mood: with a series of banners displayed by the South they had asked the club to commit to an ambitious project, and to do it quickly. The latest moves confirm that the club is more than active.

The new course needs solid foundations to rest on: Sesko is very young but has already shown certainties in front of goal. He has scored more goals in the Bundesliga than Zirkzee in Serie A. Compared to Guirassy he is seven years younger, he has already played (and scored) in the Champions League unlike Gyokeres, another name on the list of Rossoneri goals. A list of international candidates that now has a clearly more advanced profile: the competition also comes from multiple countries and beating it, for Milan, would mean winning a first important European challenge. Last summer the club suddenly accelerated on Okafor, closing the deal for 14 million: in his first AC Milan season Noah scored six goals in the league, one less than Leao. Okafor and Sesko paired up in Salzburg and could meet again in Milan.

At the beginning of May, Milan may have identified the solution to the problem of the next center forward, and then moved on to resolve the other issues, from the coach to the relationship with the fans who are wondering about the future. Sesko is already an excellent answer.
