AC Milan has started concrete moves to bring Granit Xhaka on board for the upcoming season. The Swiss midfielder, currently at Bayer Leverkusen, is the top priority for the Rossoneri to strengthen a midfield that has lost solidity in recent seasons. The sports management, led by Igli Tare, believes that the former Arsenal player can bring leadership, experience, and tactical order to the project aiming to regain prominence in Italy and Europe.

As reported by 'Calciomercato,' Milan is prepared to make an initial offer close to 10 million euros, including variables, in an effort to convince the German side. San Siro is aware that it won't be easy, as Leverkusen aims to retain the Swiss national team captain after significant departures like Wirtz, Tah, and Frimpong.

Optimism about Xhaka's Signing

Moreover, the German club has Malick Thiaw on their radar as a possible defensive reinforcement. Although currently two separate deals, there is a possibility that both negotiations could intersect if interests align. Milan is open to considering offers for the German defender but is not willing to let him go at any price.

The future of Xhaka could start taking shape in the next few days, when the first formal meeting between both parties occurs. There is optimism at Milanello: they believe the Swiss player could be the new helm of the team.
