AC Milan's new coach Ruben Amorim has already begun shaping his squad for the upcoming season, with Morten Hjulmand as a top target. The 24-year-old Danish midfielder, currently captain of Sporting CP, has a hefty price tag of around 40 million euros. Amorim, who previously managed Hjulmand at Sporting, sees him as a key addition to his midfield.

Hjulmand's impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, with Juventus also interested in him last summer. His contract with Sporting runs until 2028, but the Portuguese club may be willing to sell him this summer. However, the substantial asking price and interest from Premier League clubs complicate Milan's pursuit.

The Rossoneri are reportedly hesitant to meet Sporting's valuation, and the competition from England only adds to the challenge. Hjulmand's ability to control the tempo of the game and his experience as a captain make him an attractive target, but Milan must weigh the cost against other potential signings.

As the transfer window heats up, Milan's fans will be eager to see if their club can secure a deal for the talented young midfielder. With Amorim at the helm, the team's style and strategy may undergo significant changes, and Hjulmand could play a crucial role in the team's future success.
