Milan make final decisions regarding Lucas Lima: the details
In Brazil the fate of Lucas Lima and his decision regarding the future is one of the most discussed topics this weeks. The talented 27 year old attacking midfielder will leave Santos at the end of the season, the club he has been playing for since 2014.
His contract will expire on December 31, and Lucas Lima has already sent his greetings to the fans, many of whom have not approved his decision to abandon Santos on a free transfer. Meanwhile, his agents, according to Corriere dello Sport, have again offered Lucas Lima’s services to AC Milan as early as next January, as a reinforcement for the midfield with zero costs.
The Rossoneri club, however, have definitively reject this hypothesis, as it was rumored in recent days by Santos executives. AC Milan are not interested in Lucas Lima, not so much for technical reasons, because the 27 year old midfielder is still considered a great talent and a quality reinforcement, but for other more practical reasons. Although his transfer would be at zero cost due to his expiring contract, Milan would have to face various costly charges between agent fees and intermediaries commissions between Italy and Brazil. A not convenient and not cheap operation at all. For this reasons now Lucas Lima, appears to be very close to a transfer to Corinthians, one of the absolute rivals of Santos in Brasileirao.
The 27 years old Lucas Lima is an attacking midfielder that can easily play as winger on both sides and in the middle. The classical and quality Brazilian talent but one that does not have a great feeling with the goal: only 10 nets with Santos shirt in more than 100 games. His dribbling skills could have been useful to Milan, but he is not the player who can turn things around this season.
