Santi Giménez Joins AC Milan: Financial Gains for Cruz Azul

Mexican forward Santi Giménez could join AC Milan from Feyenoord, according to unconfirmed reports. If this move materializes, Club Cruz Azul would benefit financially from this transaction.

Santi Giménez, son of former footballer 'Chaco' Giménez, currently plays in the Eredivisie of the Netherlands, but there are rumors of his imminent transfer to the Italian club. Videos and photos of the player in the Milanese city have fueled these rumors.

"Club Cruz Azul will earn 'a little change' of several million euros in the event of the sale of Santi Giménez," stated Fox Sports. According to this source, AC Milan would be willing to pay 35 million euros for the forward, which would provide the Mexican club a profit due to the 10% of the player's rights they hold.

To date, Santi Giménez has scored 12 goals in 15 matches during the 2024-2025 season with Feyenoord, including 5 goals in the UEFA Champions League. This performance has positioned him as one of the top scorers in the European competition.

Although AC Milan appears to be the frontrunner in this transfer, Santi Giménez's market value is estimated at 37 million euros by Transfermarkt, two million more than the figure mentioned in the deal with the Italian club.
