Another signing for AC Milan? Eredivisie’s best player could come to the San Siro, Alkmaar set a clear price tag

AC Milan could bring a new signing to the San Siro in the coming days or weeks. And a very interesting one at that. Tijjani Reijnders, a great talent in Dutch football, has been in the Rossoneri’s sights for some time now.

A number of names have appeared on AC Milan’s radar recently, with Alkmaar’s Tijjani Reijnders being one of the next on the list.

He scored eight goals and assisted eleven more in the last Eredivisie season, after which he was voted Player of the Year in the Dutch top flight.

According to the print edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, AC have reportedly already high-fived the great talent of Dutch football.

The Zwolle native was supposed to agree to a contract that will earn him €1.7 million a year. However, the Rossoneri must now find common ground with his current employer. AZ do not want to sell Reijnders for less than 18 to 20 million.

For AC, Reijnders would be a great choice not only because of his age and potential, but also because he can play multiple roles on the pitch.

And an important factor is also that he is used to the 4-2-3-1 formation that Milan coach Stefano Pioli is banking on.

Reijnders at Alkmaar…

The 24-year-old midfielder made his first appearance in an AZ senior jersey in 2018. In fact, the Dutch club picked him up from Zwolle in mid-2017 and placed him in the U21 squad for a time. In January 2020, he left on a six-month loan to Waalwijk.

He has thus permanently settled in Alkmaar for the 2020/21 season. He has played 128 games for the fourth team of the last Eredivisie season, scoring 13 goals and assisting 15 more.
