Milan-Orsolini, injury and evaluation: the math doesn’t add up

The reaction to the possible Riccardo Orsolini hit. While Milan negotiates Santiago Gimenez, proposal to Bologna causes discussion

Milan-Orsolini, infortunio e valutazione: i conti non tornano (LaPresse) – MilanLive.it

Milan is swooping in on Riccardo Orsolini. Yesterday evening, news broke of the Diavolo’s strong pressing for the Bologna outfielder. A pressing – recounted by Sky Sport – so much so that the Rossoneri club reportedly pushed the club to put on the plate an offer of 18 million euros plus the signing of Noah Okafor.

An offer that would have been rejected by the Rossoblu, but Milan would have ready the raise, 20 million euros, the Swiss and the loan of Samu Chukwueze. A proposal that the Diavolo fans on social media had a hard time believing. It is enough to take a tour of X to understand the common opinion of the Rossoneri supporter.

Okafor , seven days ago was given with a right set at 26

Today they offer him to Bologna + 18 mln to get Orsolini?
And how much is Orsolini worth?

And in the middle of the attempt x Gimenez they give away 18 mln ?

It seems very very strange to me .

I can even believe #Milan on #Orsolini. It would make so much sense

But 20 plus #Okafor’s tag plus #Chukwueze’s loan?

And how much is it worth? 50 mln? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 https://t.co/N0dORbrNCb

It would already seem crazy to me to swap dry Okafor-Orsolini…let alone give him 18 million

Orsolini I like but valuation of 35 mln does not exist and in fact is yet another Dimarzian crap.

Plus small detail: he is broken and will be out a month or so. Very believable that you deprive yourself of two outfielders and get one broken one

Milan, colpo Orsolini: valutazione esagerata

“The tests Riccardo Orsolini underwent today showed a first-degree injury to his right hamstring. Recovery time expected 3-4 weeks approximately.” So reads Bologna’s official statement after the injury he had during the match against Borussia Dortmund.

The Diavolo, in dire emergency at forward, would be ready to take one currently injured player, giving up two who have recently recovered. Then add that there is likely to be Bologna-Milan to be made up just in February, before Orsolini’s return.

All rather strange, like the valuations made: a few days ago Okafor had been sold for a total sum of about 27 million euros, between loan and redemption. Now he is being offered to Bologna for Orsolini, plus 18 million. The valuation of the Italian outfielder would thus be 45 million, but with the new proposal it would rise to 47 plus Chukwueze’s loan. The market is strange, but this time the numbers don’t really add up.

UPDATE – It should be noted that at the moment there is no confirmation coming regarding the negotiation for the purchase of Orsolini by AC Milan
