AC Milan star Santiago Gimenez makes clear statement on future as Serie A side hunt new striker

Club Friendlies

AC Milan

Arsenal

<p>Milan forward Gimenez has addressed speculation regarding a potential summer exit by reaffirming his commitment to the Rossoneri. Speaking at a press conference ahead of Mexico’s 2-1 win over the United States, marking his first international title win, the striker confirmed that he plans to remain at San Siro.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Gimenez joined Milan in January from Feyenoord for €32 million (£27m/$35m) plus €3m in bonuses. Despite netting six goals and providing three assists in 19 appearances in the second half of the season, questions over his future surfaced amid Milan's plans to sign a new striker this summer. However, the 24-year-old remains focused on making an impact in Serie A after helping Mexico win the Gold Cup at NRG Stadium.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Gimenez<a href="https://sport.sky.it/calciomercato/2025/07/06/milan-gimenez-conferenza-news" target="_blank"></a> told the reporters: "I feel at home at Milan, I'm living a dream, I'm grateful for the opportunity to be in a team like Milan. There have been rumours of a possible farewell but I'm fine. I spoke with the management and the staff, the idea is to stay. I'll try to give my best, I don't want to waste this opportunity."</p>

WHAT GIMENEZ SAID

<p>Milan resume pre-season training this week, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ac-milan-offer-eur32m-midfield-target-massimiliano-allegri-revolution-luka-modric-signing/blt7230657770024e16" target="_blank">Massimiliano Allegri expected to evaluate the squad</a> ahead of potential signings. While the club remain interested in reinforcing the forward line, Gimenez’s commitment gives Milan flexibility as they assess striker targets, as they have been recently in touch with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/ac-milan-spending-bayer-leverkusen-new-striker-dusan-vlahovic/blt89639d3906d5233c" target="_blank">Juventus' Dusan Vlahovic and Bayer Leverkusen's Victor Boniface</a>. </p>
