AC Milan to compete with Saudi Arabia interest as battle to sign Serie A top scorer heats up

<p>Atalanta have set an asking price of €50 million (£43m/$58m) for Retegui, but Milan value the player at only €40m (£34m/$47m), according to<a href="https://www.calciomercato.com/liste/retegui-puo-partire-la-richiesta-dell-atalanta-l-offerta-araba-e-l-idea-del-milan/bltff78fec4609fdf42" target="_blank"> Italian media reports.</a> However, according to<a href="https://sport.sky.it/calciomercato/2025/07/02/atalanta-retegui-al-qadsiah-calciomercato-news" target="_blank"> <em>Sky</em> in Italy,</a> Saudi club Al-Qadisiyah are ready to offer a sum in the region of €60m (£51m/$70m) to secure the services of the player.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Retegui scored 25 goals in Serie A while playing for Atalanta last season, securing the title of Capocannoniere (league top scorer). With <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/tammy-abraham-team-up-with-ex-man-utd-boss-roma-accept-eur20m-bid-for-striker-following-ac-milan-spell/blt087888671e9a6b46" target="_blank">Tammy Abraham</a> moving to Turkish side Besiktas and Luka Jovic becoming a free agent, AC Milan are left with only one active striker, Santiago Gimenez. Sporting director Igli Tare has stated that<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ac-milan-director-mexico-santiago-gimenez/blt730f68f4cab9ae40" target="_blank"> he intends to support Gimenez</a> while also searching for a traditional number nine.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Milan are close to completing the signature of Italian midfielder <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ac-milan-midfield-signing-samuele-ricci-medical-scheduled-eur25m-agreement-torino/blta9bc4b3d3f85d8ac" target="_blank">Samuele Ricci</a> from Torino. While having completed a deal for <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/luka-modric-confirmed-serie-a-ac-milan-sporting-director-excited-real-madrid-legend-impact-christian-pulisic/blt2925bc582a0c8d3c" target="_blank">Luka Modric</a> on a free transfer, they are in negotiations with Club Brugge for <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ac-milan-offer-eur32m-midfield-target-massimiliano-allegri-revolution-luka-modric-signing/blt7230657770024e16" target="_blank">Ardon Jashari.</a></p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>With Massimiliano Allegri beginning pre-season as early as Monday, Milan will hope to get a few deals done quickly so that the Italian tactician can start the season in optimal condition. For Retegui, who had a stellar 2024-25 campaign, he will assess all the options on the table before making his next move.</p>
