Alious“It’s Total Nonsense!” Insider Slams Claims Linking Niclas Füllkrug With AC Milan Move
Reports suggesting AC Milan are preparing a move for West Ham striker Niclas Füllkrug have been shot down in emphatic fashion, with a leading Claret & Hugh transfer source dismissing the talk as nothing more than “media nonsense.”
Recent rumours linked the 32-year-old German forward with a January exit, with Milan and several Bundesliga clubs reportedly circling after Füllkrug’s agent publicly stated that his client wanted to leave East London. Claims even emerged that West Ham had granted permission for him to go. However, as C&H previously clarified, that version of events is misleading.
West Ham have not agreed to let Füllkrug walk out freely. The club’s stance is clear: he will only be allowed to depart if another club agrees to cover his full wages *and* if the Hammers secure a replacement striker first. This reality contrasts sharply with German reports suggesting an easy escape route. In truth, the club are unimpressed with the way the £27 million signing from Dortmund is trying to force his exit and will only negotiate under conditions that suit them.
Inside Source: “Total Crap”
When asked directly whether Milan held any real interest, Claret & Hugh’s top transfer insider — someone with past experience negotiating with AC Milan — responded bluntly:
> “It’s media nonsense, total crap.”
According to the source, none of Europe’s major clubs are genuinely pursuing Füllkrug, while smaller teams simply cannot afford his wage demands. With no serious suitors willing to meet West Ham’s conditions, the forward remains firmly at the London Stadium unless something changes dramaticallycam
Bottom Line:
Unless a club steps forward ready to take on his full salary and West Ham bring in a suitable replacement, Füllkrug will not be leaving in January — despite the noise coming from his camp.
