AC Milan has rekindled its interest in Strasbourg`s right-back Guela Doué, with an eye on a potential transfer in July 2025. The 22-year-old defender has caught the attention of the Rossoneri as they look to bolster their defensive options following recent departures.
Milan`s Strategic Move for Defensive Reinforcement
The Italian giants are actively seeking a new right-back after the exits of Kyle Walker and Davide Calabria, coupled with Emerson Royal`s expected departure. Doué, who joined Strasbourg from Rennes for under €7 million last year, has emerged as a prime target for Milan`s defensive reshuffle.
Doué`s Potential and Family Connection
Guela Doué, currently under contract with Strasbourg until June 2029, is known for his speed and potential for improvement. Interestingly, he is the brother of Paris Saint-Germain star Désiré Doué, who recently made headlines by scoring twice in the Champions League Final against Inter Milan on May 31.
Milan`s Pre-Season Preparations
As Milan begins its pre-season training under newly appointed coach Massimiliano Allegri, the club`s interest in Doué signals their intent to strengthen key positions. Allegri`s recent unveiling at a press conference has set the stage for an exciting new chapter in Milan`s tactical approach.
The potential acquisition of Guela Doué could provide Milan with a dynamic and youthful option in their defensive lineup, aligning with the club`s strategy of blending experienced players with promising talents.
