AC Milan have set their sights on young Argentine midfielder Federico Redondo as part of their reinforcement plans for 2024 and have already made contacts with Argentinos Juniors to complete his signing. El Bicho is aware of the value of its promising player and has set a price of 12 million euros, a figure that reflects the status of one of local football's biggest promises.
Stefano Pioli, the coach of the Italian team, has shown particular interest in the son of Milan legend Fernando Redondo. With the coach's approval, those responsible at AC Milan are busy ensuring the integration of the young talent into the midfield of the Rossonero team.

Argentinos Juniors president Cristian Malaspina previously acknowledged the difficulty of retaining Federico Redondo, particularly in the face of European offers. The midfielder is currently taking part in the Venezuelan Olympic qualification with Javier Mascherano's U23 national team. In exchange for his talent, Argentinos Juniors would be willing to let him leave for the above mentioned sum, a sum considered affordable for the big European teams.
Redondo's future is looming in Europe and Malaspina dismissed rumors of a possible return to Argentina and denied any call from River Plate. Despite the interest of the local teams, the leader pointed out that so far he has not received an offer from the Núñez team for Redondo's services.
AC Milan will take time to analyze the situation before making a decision on his possible signing, given the competition and the midfielder's high price tag. The family saga could run its course as Federico Redondo could follow in his father's footsteps either in this transfer market or next summer. Attention turns to how negotiations will develop in the coming days and whether the young Argentine talent will wear the Rossonera jersey in the second half of the season.
