According to Italian media sempremilan, Allegri has made it clear to the AC Milan management that he needs a stronger forward, but the specific candidate is still a mystery.

The media has previously conducted an in-depth analysis of the reasons why Milan is still facing difficulties in finding suitable forwards despite limited returns on forward signings in the past few seasons.

The situation so far this season is quite abnormal: Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic, who have transformed as natural wingers, have continued to score steadily, while Santiago Jimenez and Christopher Nkunku have still scored zero goals in the league - even though the two are worth more than 70 million euros in total and have contributed a lot of goals in Feyenoord and Leipzig respectively.

According to reporter Pietro Mazzara, Allegri does hope to introduce another center in the winter, but there is currently no clear candidate.

"As the January transfer window approaches, the international match day in November is always the most active period for transfer rumors. Clubs begin to have a clearer understanding of lineup needs and send preliminary signals to players."

"Allegri requires the introduction of forwards in January, but the players must have highly specific technical characteristics. Although he has many technical players who are active around the penalty area. However, the team still lacks a fulcrum that can truly dominate the penalty area and determine the direction of the game. Therefore, Milan needs a striker with physical suppression who can be a reliable support when the team is in trouble, and who also has the ability to score goals. "

"The specific candidate is still shrouded in mystery: although several names have been circulated, the club must consider the feasibility of the January transfer and how the player will fit in with Leicester. The O-Pulisic combination forms a balance - the strike pair will make their debut in this Sunday's derby."

"Niklas Felkruger, who has lost his place at West Ham United, will definitely be in the contact range of Milan management, but even if there is the possibility of selling Santiago Jimenez, the possibility of Milan headquarters seeking a blockbuster deal in January is still very low, similar to the situation in past years. , the relevant discussions will be postponed to June next year, and Lewandowski's name is always on Milan's attention list. "

"The club has not yet made an inquiry about Joshua Zirkzee and Manchester United (the relationship with agent Kia Jurabzian is still at a freezing point), and the Red Devils have also refused to accept the loan plan. Milan needs to wait for the most appropriate time to introduce the targets on the signing list. "
