AC Milan have announced their new 25-man squad list for the UEFA Champions League knockout phase, and there are predictably some key changes.
Compared to the list presented in September for the initial ‘league phase’, the rules allow only three new signings from the January transfer window to be added, regardless of the number of exits and regardless of their homegrown status/age.
It is instead possible to modify List B (U21 players who have spent at least two consecutive seasons at the club) without limits.
From the new signings, Santiago Gimenez, Joao Felix and Kyle Walker have been included. Luka Jovic and Alex Jimenez remain out having not been included at the start of the season, while Warren Bondo and Riccardo Sottil are not named either due to the three new signing rule.
