If it failed to get Mohamed Simakans services from Strasbourg, AC Milan would have prepared an alternative player.

According to a report from Simone Rovera of Telefoot on Twitter, AC Milan already has an alternative name if Simakan fails to find. The player is an RC Lens star, named Loic Bade who is being prepared as an alternative.

The 20-year-old center-back this season has become a mainstay for Lens across the French Ligue 1. Of course, the existence of a 20 year old player playing regularly in Ligue 1 is not a coincidence.

However, Loic Bade is indeed considered to be one of the defenders with the brightest future in France today. Therefore, AC Milan has started to spy and identify if Bade can be an alternative to Simakan.

Problem Simakan, AC Milan is still in the forefront of getting the Strasbourg star’s services. But lately, there has been a temptation from RB Leipzig who apparently tried to hijack Simakan from AC Milan.

This made AC Milan have to be careful and start preparing for the worst-case scenario of losing Simakan. AC Milan itself is actually traumatized by RB Leipzig, because they once lost their target player who was hijacked to Germany, he is Dani Olmo.

Loic Bade seems to be the perfect figure for AC Milan to move on if Mohamed Simakan fails to find. But it should be noted, while at Lens Bade played with 3 defenders more, while AC Milan used the 4 defender format, maybe that could be a problem later.
