The situation surrounding forward Santiago Giménez is growing increasingly tense. The player is not getting enough game time and is ready to leave the Milan club. There are suitors from England interested in the Mexican striker.
Details: According to Calciomercato, Giménez is on the radar of Sunderland and Brentford. Milan is open to considering a possible sale but wants to recoup the €30 million they paid Feyenoord for him a year ago. The Rossoneri are planning to sign a new striker to replace the Mexican.
Meanwhile, Santiago Giménez continues his recovery from a lingering right ankle injury and has missed another team training session. The striker has already sat out matches against Roma, Parma, and Inter, and is likely to miss the upcoming clash versus Lazio as well. Giménez is following an individual training program, striving to fully resolve the issue that has plagued him for several months.
This season, the Mexican has made eleven appearances for the Milan side, registering just one goal and one assist. Transfermarkt currently values Giménez at €25 million.
Reminder: Milan has set its sights on Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta.
