AC Milan are expected to be active during the January transfer window and one of the areas they must strengthen is the defensive department, especially after Fikayo Tomori’s injury.
According to Corriere dello Sport (via MilanNews), Matteo Gabbia will return to Milan. The Rossoneri’s first move will be the simplest and most obvious as they will recall their Primavera product from his loan spell at Villarreal.
This is an option that has many advantages, starting with the fact it does not have excessive costs and above all it guarantees you that you have a player ready to use, since Gabbia knows the league and the club well. Clearly however, Gabbia cannot be the only signing.
The Milan directors are looking to England. Clement Lenglet has given his approval to joining but first the loan agreement between Aston Villa and Barcelona must be terminated, then an economic agreement with the Blaugrana must be reached which is not easy given the Frenchman receives a salary of €6m net per season.
This is why the list is long and still contains the name of Jakub Kiwior at Arsenal, another player who already knows Serie A, but the problem is that the Gunners don’t want to loan him out. Finally, Nordi Mukiele from PSG was offered to the Rossoneri.
