Former Juventus and Parma striker Di Vaio has played in Serie A for many years. Even though he is 34, this veteran of the Italian league has maintained a good form in recent years. This season, as captain, he has played in all of his team's matches, scoring 7 goals and providing 2 assists. He would be a suitable replacement for Inzaghi; due to his age, Di Vaio's market value will not be too high. The transfer market has priced him at 3 million euros.
The interest of the Rossoneri in Gomis began last season. This French international has scored 6 goals and provided 2 assists in 14 appearances in Ligue 1 this season. Compared to Di Vaio, Gomis is younger and can play as a center-forward, winger, or second striker, but he would need to adapt to Serie A. His contract expires in 2012, and his transfer fee is expected to be around 10 million euros, higher than that of Bologna's captain.
Besides Di Vaio, Football Market also revealed another candidate: Lorient's striker Gomis. This Italian media outlet reported that Milan scouts were present at the Mustova Stadium yesterday to watch the match between Lorient and Rennes. Their target was precisely 23-year-old Gomis, who provided an assist to help teammate Morel score the second goal.
Since Inzaghi's severe injury ended his season, finding a new striker has always been a key task for Milan's transfer department. In the last game against Sampdoria, Ibrahimovic showed signs of fatigue. Milan, competing on three fronts, cannot rely solely on Ibrahimovic and Robinho. From Amauri to Matri, there have been numerous players linked with the Rossoneri. Yesterday's Italian media provided two more names: Bologna forward Di Vaio and Lorient forward Gomis.
There is still one month before the winter transfer window opens, and Milan still has to face Brescia, Bologna, Roma, and Ajax. While actively seeking transfers, they are also planning to promote young talents from the youth team for appropriate rotation. MilanNews mentioned three names: Beretta, Simone Ganz, and Gaeta. All three young players were born after 1992, among them, Simone, the son of former famous striker Ganz, is worth looking forward to.
