“AC Milan Close to Signing Strahinja Pavlovic in €25 Million Deal”
AC Milan might be in for a busy summer, reminiscent of waiting for a London bus. After no signings in the first two weeks, the club could finalize two deals within a week, with progress appearing imminent.
For the past six months, Milan has been looking to strengthen their defense, and it seems they are close to securing their main target, Strahinja Pavlovic. The Serbian defender quickly became the preferred choice for the Rossoneri, and negotiations have advanced swiftly.
The process hasn’t been entirely smooth, but such challenges are typical in the transfer market.
Pavlovic confirmed his interest in joining Milan early on, and a draft contract was quickly agreed upon. However, when Milan approached RB Salzburg with a bid, the Austrian club demanded a higher fee, aiming for €30 million.
Milan initially hoped to settle closer to €20 million, but a report from Salzburger Nachrichten indicates that the clubs have likely reached a compromise. The defender is now ‘on the verge’ of joining Milan, with the clubs expected to agree on a €25 million fee, including bonuses.
