Overview
- Sky, cited by dpa and Die Zeit, reports West Ham and Milan have agreed a half-season loan that includes a purchase option for the striker.
- Sportbild reports Milan would cover Füllkrug’s estimated €4.5 million net salary and that talks continue over an option versus an obligation to buy for a fee reportedly under €10 million.
- Füllkrug was left out of West Ham’s squad for the 3–0 loss to Manchester City, adding to expectations he is preparing to depart.
- The 32-year-old moved from Borussia Dortmund to West Ham for roughly €30 million after Euro 2024 but struggled for minutes due to injuries and two managerial changes.
- His agent said the London move “did not work,” and Milan are seeking a reliable finisher with wingers leading their scoring so far this season.
