The January window of 2025 has come to an end and in total, AC Milan parted ways with seven first-team players. In short, it was a very lively one for the Rossoneri and below, we take a look at the departures as well as the details of each, from the formula to the transfer fee.
In addition to five signings, aimed at bolstering the team, Milan parted ways with quite a few players and thus managed to increase their spending budget. Some of the moves took place on deadline day, which made for a stressful last few hours of the mercato.
Ismael Bennacer and Noah Okafor both left in the final hours, joining Marseille and Napoli respectively, with Milan having to scrap for replacements. In the end, they did pretty well with Warren Bondo and Riccardo Sottil among the signings made.
If you want a full financial breakdown of the mercato, such as gross costs, how the sales increased the budget and so on, make sure to read our long read on Substack. It’s one of the most popular bonus articles we do every year, so don’t miss out!

It would be interesting to see next summer sales of Bennacer, Okafor, Pobega, Adli, Colombo, Kalulu, maybe Saelemaekers plus definitely sales of Alvaro Morata.
I would prefer club to sell also Ruben Loftus and Chukwueze.
Florenzi release for free plus somehow to find loan for Divock Origi.
Divock Origi should report for training for Milan Futuro. Keith 🇲🇹
Bennacer and Morata will most likely be redeemed I think. Okafor… For 23 million? I dunno…
If Napoli redeems Okafor, that will be an incredible deal.
I’m sure Morata will be redeemed, and 15 million total is also solid.
Zero liability exit details?
He made it into the image but not the article.

Stuid auto correct.
Zeroli* exit details.
Origi still on Milan payroll…..
Don’t forget next summer leao still no. 1 Barca target. So it’s the right time to cash in. If he play with good ambition
