Moretto: Milan want to secure Corinthians keeper in advance amid likely Maignan exit
"AC Milan have set their sights on the Corinthians goalkeeper Hugo Souza, per a report, to the point of wanting to secure his services well in advance of the summer. Mike Maignan's contract situation has made the headlines countless times over the last few months. The six-month 'warning' is approaching, at which point he will be able to sign pre-contracts, but Milan are seemingly more concerned with finding a replacement."
"In his two latest videos, the reputable journalist Matteo Moretto has talked about Milan's interest in Hugo Souza. Yesterday, he stated that Milan had made an offer to sign the goalkeeper already in January, but the figures were deemed too low by Corinthians. Furthermore, the player clarified that he would like to remain at the Brazilian club until the World Cup, given that he wouldn't get a starting spot immediately at Milan."
AC Milan aim to sign Corinthians goalkeeper Hugo Souza as a replacement for Mike Maignan amid concern over Maignan's contract and the approaching six-month pre-contract window. Milan submitted an offer in January that Corinthians considered too low. Hugo Souza prefers to stay at Corinthians until the World Cup to ensure regular playing time rather than take an immediate backup role at Milan. Milan interpret the preference as a desire to remain until summer and plan to reopen negotiations then. The club intends to secure the goalkeeper early in the summer transfer window to beat rival suitors. Maignan is currently expected to leave.
