AC Milan eye €30m-rated Liverpool target as Sandro Tonali replacement

Florentino Luis price named as AC Milan eye Liverpool target

The transfer rumour mill continues to churn, and Liverpool find themselves linked to another promising midfielder. Florentino Luis, a player previously associated with the Reds, has emerged as a potential target for AC Milan.

However, recent reports suggest that the Portugal midfielder is available for a relatively modest fee of €30m (£25m) this summer. This development raises the question of whether Liverpool should reignite their interest in the talented Benfica player.

AC Milan’s interest in Florentino Luis stems from their search for a replacement for Newcastle United-bound Sandro Tonali. Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio via ECHO has highlighted the Portugal midfielder as an option for the Serie A club. This news, combined with the accessible price tag, presents an intriguing opportunity for Liverpool to consider.

At just 23 years old, Luis has already showcased immense potential in his career. Known for his defensive capabilities, he possesses excellent tackling, interception, and positional awareness skills.

With the need to add depth and quality to the squad, the acquisition of Florentino could address these requirements. His skill set aligns with Liverpool’s playing style, emphasizing pressing, intensity, and quick transitions.

Luis’s defensive prowess would complement the team’s high-energy approach and provide a platform for the attacking talents to flourish. Given Liverpool’s successful track record of integrating players into Jurgen Klopp’s system, the Portuguese midfielder could thrive alongside the existing midfielders at the club.
