Following an underwhelming Premier League stint hampered by repeated injuries Füllkrug is eager to end his time in London early to safeguard his chances of being selected for the 2026 World Cup.
Negotiations are focused on a loan move through the end of the season which would include a purchase option for the summer. Milan are said to be willing to take on his substantial $8 million annual wage. Head coach Massimiliano Allegri is reportedly keen on adding a strong experienced No. 9 like Füllkrug valuing his physicality and international experience.
Those close to the player have admitted that the switch to English football did not go as hoped. His advisor Thorsten Wirth acknowledged that the transfer turned out to be a mistake in hindsight conceding there is little value in denying it.
