Davide Calabria has been linked with a departure in recent months as AC Milan are looking to sign a right-back this summer. However, according to a journalist, the captain is certain to remain even if he won’t be a starter.
Calabria has been the captain of Milan since the departure of Alessio Romagnoli in the summer of 2022. However, he hasn’t always been that successful on the pitch and the Rossoneri are now looking to reinforce the team with a new right-back.
The likes of Tiago Santos and Emerson Royal have been mentioned as targets, but Calabria is still set to remain at Milan. At least if the journalist Giuseppe Pastore is to be believed, stating the following about the situation…
“Calabria will certainly remain at Milan. It’s true that Milan are looking for a starting right back, we read about it every day, and in the newspapers there is talk of Emerson Royal. Calabria has also lost his place a bit,” he stated as cited by MilanNews.
Calabria’s contract will also expire in 2025, so an agreement must be reached relatively soon to avoid a tough situation. Being the captain of the team, though, the right-back will likely reach a middle ground with Milan on the salary.
