Niclas Fullkrug is searching for a fresh start after a nightmare season that has seen his stock plummet across Europe. The Germany international, who has struggled with injuries and form, is now attracting interest from various global leagues as his time at both AC Milan and West Ham United appears to be at an end.
U21 international striker Nicolo Tresoldi could play for as many as three major footballing nations and is reportedly looking to move clubs again this summer. Which national team manager will be the first to call him? And what’s the situation with BVB?
The German moved to the capital of Lombardy during the winter break with high hopes and ambitions. As the season draws to a close, little remains of those hopes and ambitions.
January is a notoriously bad time for buyers because nobody ever wants to sell top talent midway through the season. There are, however, exceptions to the rule. Some clubs need to raise funds to balance the books, while others can be left with not option but to unload an unhappy player who has made it clear that he wants to join a stronger side.
Niclas Fullkrug's nightmare start to life in Italy continued last week after the striker had €500k worth of valuables stolen from his hotel room. The German moved to the Rossoneri on loan for the rest of the season at the start of January, having been deemed surplus to requirements by Premier League side West Ham.
United States men's national team star Christian Pulisic is set to be joined by Premier League flop at AC Milan in a shock transfer as the Rossoneri's desperate search for a new striker nears conclusion. The German forward has failed to settle in London since joining from Borussia Dortmund and is understood to be keen on an immediate exit in the next window.
AC Milan are reportedly weighing up a January swoop for struggling West Ham United striker Niclas Fullkrug as sporting director Igli Tare looks to provide manager Massimiliano Allegri with a physical focal point in attack. The German international has failed to settle in London since joining from Borussia Dortmund and is understood to be keen on an immediate exit, though a return to the Bundesliga remains an option.
West Ham have reportedly signalled their willingness to sanction the permanent departure of struggling striker Niclas Fullkrug, but a potential return to the Bundesliga withWolfsburg has hit a significant snag due to administrative delays involving incoming sporting director Pirmin Schwegler and the German international's substantial salary package. The delay will have rival clubs across Europe on alert to the situation.
Santiago Giménez’s future at AC Milan is becoming increasingly uncertain. The club is evaluating changes to its attack for January, and multiple reports across Europe indicate the Mexican striker could be included in a potential swap deal with West Ham for German forward Niclas Füllkrug. With form and tactical fit both under review, a move to the Premier League is emerging as a possibility.
