Milan opening bid for Gimenez rejected

Several sources in Italy claim Milan offered circa €30m to sign Feyenoord striker Santiago Gimenez, but the Dutch side rejected the Rossoneri’s opening bid.

Milan are looking for a new centre forward in the January transfer window, and Gimenez has already reached an agreement with the Serie A giants.

Feyenoord reject Milan opening bid for Gimenez

However, the Rossoneri are struggling to convince Feyenoord to sell their star striker this month.

Gazzetta and Corriere dello Sport report that Milan already made an opening offer slightly below €30m for the Mexico international. According to Gazzetta, Gimenez wants to join the Rossoneri at all costs this month, but Feyenoord rejected the Rossoneri’s offer.

Feyenoord’s asking price is around €40m, but the Dutch side seem unwilling to sell the 25-year-old in January and would only discuss a transfer in the summer.

Sky Sport reported on Friday that Gimenez was pushing for a move to San Siro so the Rossoneri hope the Mexican striker with an Italian passport will help them persuade Feyenoord to finalise the deal this month.
