Gerry Cardinale wants to make a statement centre-back signing and is targeting Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk, a report claims. It is no secret that Milan want to sign a new central defender in January, but they will also be evaluating potential opportunities in view of next season too, to add some experience to what is quite a young department.

According to MilanNews24, Cardinale has identified Van Dijk as a key signing to strengthen the defence. His contract with Liverpool – which expires in June – makes him a very tempting free transfer possibility, and he is the ‘big dream’ for next summer.

The Dutchman would represent a statement move for the Rossoneri, although the competition and financial demands make a potential deal anything but straightforward. The second is economic: a two-year contract worth €8-10m net per season would be needed.
