According to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport, AC Milan are interested in signing Niclas Fullkrug, after West Ham informed the former Borussia Dortmund striker he can leave the London Stadium in January.
The 32-year-old hasn’t had a very good time since arriving from Dortmund over a year ago, making a total of 27 appearances across all competitions for the Hammers, with just three goals and two assists to his name. His contract runs until the summer of 2028, but he’s obviously considered surplus to requirements at the team now led by Nuno Espirito Santo.
The Rossoneri desperately lack firepower, with neither Santiago Gimenez nor Christopher Nkunku scoring at all in nine and seven Serie A appearances this season, respectively.
Despite their problems with strikers, Milan are currently third in the Italian top flight, just two points behind Inter Milan and AS Roma. However, if they intend to seriously challenge for the Scudetto, they need their central attacking players to start scoring.
