AC Milan are pushing ahead with plans to reshape their attacking options this summer, with Nigerian star Victor Boniface emerging as the club's top transfer priority, Soccernet.ng reports .
Following the recent appointments of Massimiliano Allegri as head coach and former Lazio director Igli Tare as Sporting Director, the Rossoneri are set for a major squad overhaul ahead of the 2024/25 campaign. Central to their rebuild is the urgent search for a new frontman capable of leading the line at the San Siro.
With only Lorenzo Colombo and Santiago Gimenez currently in the striker department, neither of whom have truly convinced at the top level, Milan are targeting a high-impact addition.
According to Italian transfer insider Gianluigi Longari , Bayer Leverkusen's Boniface is top of the wishlist - although the deal would be financially demanding.
