AC Milan has reportedly hit a setback in their pursuit of Marco Asensio. Marco Asensio is out of contract with Real Madrid in the summer and is looking for a way out. The Spanish International has rejected the previous offer presented by the Madrid Giants.

The AC Milan board are pretty aware of the requirements they need to fill in the current squad. Out of that is the priority of landing a right winger. The board believed that landing Marco Asensio on a free deal would be a massive deal however, at present things are way out of their plan.

Ivan Gazidis, the club CEO, made it clear yesterday that there will be a chance to develop an even stronger team. AC Milan’s participation in the UEFA Champions League will bring in huge revenue. This revenue will help the club to strengthen the team. According to Calcio Mercato, thus, the Champions League will be a crucial launching pad for Milan.
