Duel for Karetsas: Milan enter race with Dortmund
Multiple sources in Italy claim that Milan have set their sights on Genk attacker Konstantinos Karetsas, but they face strong competition from Borussia Dortmund for the Greece international. The 20-year-old attacking midfielder has emerged as a primary option for the Rossoneri as they look to strengthen under new coach Ruben Amorim.
Transfer specialists Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moretto report that Milan are already in talks with Karetsas’ representatives, though no formal offer has been presented to Genk. Corriere dello Sport and Sky Sport DE add that Dortmund are equally keen, setting up a potential transfer tug-of-war.
Midfield muscle: Hojbjerg on the radar
In addition to Karetsas, Milan are monitoring Marseille midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. The Rossoneri are reportedly considering an offer for the former Tottenham man as they seek to add experience and steel to the engine room. No official bid has been lodged yet, but the interest is concrete.
Milan have already completed deals for Gonçalo Ramos and Mario Gila, but Amorim wants further reinforcements before the window shuts, with the midfield and attacking areas seen as priorities.
“Karetsas is a player with huge potential, and the competition from Dortmund shows how highly he is rated,” a source close to the situation told Football Italia.
With the window still open, the Rossoneri are expected to accelerate their efforts in the coming weeks.
