Milan is keen on Joshua Zirkzee and has made him their prime target. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the Senior Advisor of RedBird, personally approves of this choice. The 40 million clause does not concern them, and it fits within their summer market budget. Bologna has been informed, and there will be no negotiation between the two clubs as this option will be activated. The last hurdle to overcome are the commissions, which are a topic of discussion between Milan's market team and Zirkzee's agent, Kia Joorabchian. A meeting took place last week in London, and another one will likely happen next week to bring the parties closer together. Milan is very optimistic and has set a final goal to obtain a discount on the starting 12/13 million for the economic recognition of those who manage the interests of the chosen one for the role of striker.

Joshua Zirkzee is 'super keen' on joining AC Milan, according to Fabrizio Romano. FootballTransfers exclusively revealed in January that both Arsenal and Man Utd were interested in signing the striker during the winter transfer window.

Romano is now reporting that AC Milan have informed Thiago Motta's side that they are planning to trigger the release clause. Talks are ongoing between the club and the player's representatives and it seems that Arsenal have missed out on the chance to sign him.

The contractual situation between the Dutch bomber and Bologna is clear, with the termination clause of 40 million euros valid for all clubs from July 1 to August 15. Milan is ready to activate that clause. However, the deal has been hindered so far by his agent, Kia Joorabchian, who has asked for very important figures, over 15 million euros, for the commissions of this deal. According to 'Il Resto del Carlino', however, in order to please the boy who is giving priority to staying in Italy, the Iranian agent is starting to lower his economic demands below 10 million euros. The agreement with the player instead should be a four-year deal at 4.5 million euros per season.

The second is that, in case of sale by Bologna, a rich percentage of the realized capital gain would arrive in Germany. In addition, Kia Joorabchian, the agent, played an important role.
