However, Milan have not moved at all, and now will lose him this summer for a marginal price compared to what was available last summer. A lower market When the Frenchman could have departed at his peak, the options to replace him may have been slightly better. However, we cannot reminisce on that, and the Rossoneri must look at what is available. This…
AC Milan are continuing to look into potential reinforcements for the defensive department, and Niklas Sule is the latest idea. There continues to be some doubts about how the defensive department might look for 2025-26, especially after Massimiliano Allegri’s arrival and his desire to focus on being much more solid at the back. Malick Thiaw and Fikayo Tomori both continue to be linked with exits, and that would mean that Milan need to sign a central defender to complete the department numerically. During his segment on the Sky programme ‘Calciomercato L’Originale’, Gianluca Di Marzio gave an update on a name…

Real Betis have opened talks with AC Milan over the signing of Nigeria winger Samuel Chukwueze. The LaLiga club are desperate to sign another winger following Brazil international Anthony’s return to Manchester United. Anthony spent the second half of last season on loan at the club. AC Milan paid €21.1m to sign Chukwueze from Villarreal in 2023. The 26-year-old has, however, struggled to make much impact at the club. He has scored eight goals and provided eight assists in 69 appearances for the Rossoneri.
AC Milan have offered Alessandro Florenzi a deal, but not one that would see him extend his playing career. Florenzi is one of the players who could say goodbye to Milan this summer, especially since his contract will expire at the end of the month. However, given his experience, there is also the possibility that he could remain as part of the ‘new era’. For the rebirth of the Rossoneri to begin, it is therefore essential to start again with those who only have Milan in their minds and from those who really want to stay, something which Florenzi spoke…

He prioritised a move back to Madrid and, per Estadio Deportivo, a deal is on the verge of being signed with the terms finalised and agreed upon by all the parties. Diego Simeone’s side ultimately benefited from Hernandez’s final decision to remain in Europe and reject a lucrative…

After winning four consecutive titles, Man City relinquished their crown as kings of English football this season and Pep Guardiola began rebuilding his squad for next season in the January window. City splashed €218 million on five new arrivals, which was comfortably the highest of any club and Omar Marmoush’s €75m arrival was the sixth most expensive transfer in the history of the January window. With De Bruyne departing, City have made their move for Reijnders…
