GdS: Juventus, Napoli and Newcastle want Milan defender – €20-25m deal possible | OneFootball

AC Milan are giving serious thought to the idea of selling Fikayo Tomori and there is no shortage of interested clubs, according to a report.

This morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) speaks about the key role that Tomori plays in how the defence looks moving forward, and more specifically what his exit might mean for the plans.

The former Chelsea player has lost his starting spot in recent weeks, with Paulo Fonseca now seemingly set on Gabbia-Thiaw as the centre-back pairing. While Tomori has accepted being a back-up ‘without complaints’, but it is clear that ‘he cannot be happy with his current position’.

He was one of the protagonists of the Scudetto win under Stefano Pioli and had even got into the English national team sqyad, before ending up off the radar of coaches Gareth Southgate and Lee Carsley.

In addition, he is not short of options. Napoli have already made an inquiry and Juventus also like Tomori a lot. The Milan directors – perhaps understandably so given the Pierre Kalulu operation – want to sell abroad.

The idea of a return to the Premier League must be monitored, and it is above all Newcastle United who have shown interest, while West Ham United are in the background. The price will be €20-25m, and Tomori will naturally have a say in where he goes.
