Fikayo Tomori continues to be linked with a return to the Premier League, with Newcastle United the latest suitors linked.
Tomori has been at Milan for over half a decade now, but numerous sources have suggested that his time at the club may well be coming to an end, especially after the signing of Mario Gila was confirmed on Friday for a fee of €30m.

Newcastle tempted by Tomori
According to Football Insider, Milan are ‘open’ to letting Tomori leave and Newcastle are aware of this. Tomori has ‘been a long-time target for Eddie Howe’ and is now ‘set to leave the San Siro’ ahead of next season. Coventry have also been mentioned as having an interest.
Newcastle were actually linked with the Englishman last year as well as other clubs, but Tomori chose to stay and fight for a starting spot under Massimiliano Allegri. Now, with his deal up in June 2027 and no renewal in sight, a crossroads has emerged.
As such, the Rossoneri have made Tomori ‘available for sale before this summer window closes’. The 27-year-old is ‘on the radar of several clubs across Europe’ but a return to the Premier League seems to be a preferred option.
Speaking on the Transfer Insider podcast, Pete O’Rourke explained: “If Eddie Howe wants to strengthen his defensive options, Tomori I’m sure is somebody who would figure on his wanted list.
“I think there’ll be a number of clubs, Premier League sides, probably other European sides too, that would be interested in Tomori, as it does seem that Milan would be willing to cash in on him. So look, it’ll be a pretty open race for tomorrow if Milan do open the doors for him.”
a quick 15-20 deal with Newcastle and move on…
Inacio and Doue will finish defense;
Modric’s renewal will complete midfield. but Paulinha seems interesting enough to maybe try Rabiot next to Puli; while Paulinha in double-pivot
even more when the winger/CAM don’t seem that much available this market.
Inacio, Doue, Alajbegovic and Paulinha seem like a great finishing touches for our team.
We need a LWB much more than we need a RWB. Paulinha? A question mark, not technical enough, some say, no need for a hurry in that department. A.R. can not and SHOULD not ever be considered
as an option for AMC, you have got to be kidding when you suggest something like that. Don’t you realize that that would mean the guy would have
to play on the right side which would be virtually impossible as we all know or at least many of us
do? Not to mention a few other things we would (then) have to be concerned about. Milan simply MUST NOT mess around and f**k things up this summer, we should just go straight and forward, sign Inacio, Tiago Santos, Raum and a proper MC and (an) AM(R)C with the addition of quality DMC
(if need be), AM(R)C and SC for depth, we should have already known the specific profiles by now
and just go after them meaning we should avoid acting erratically and in a totally! chaotic manner circling from one name i.e. one player to another
all the time like we used to on so many occasions.
first start by watching Amorim interview…. that word scramble is a bit on the level of psychotic
Alexis will go to LWB role, hence why we need a RWB and not LWB.
Paulinha was the only player to actually play football at Tottenham last season. for double-pivot he is perfect (knows amorim, is physical and as I mentioned in my inital post could allow Rabiot to move as CAM)
tell me you don’t know football without saying you don’t know anything about football. Rabiot played CAM at Marseille; you just know football from football manager. your takes are on the level of moronic. you believe that there will be 11-12 signings every season… 4 more transfers are enough to have a perfectly balanced squad
Seriously does anybody take any notice of Football Insider? He will not sign for Newcastle. We have stated we want our new players to be 24 or under. There is no way he’ll be added to 33 year old Schar and 34 year old Burn.
Wow, they wanted to duet Thiaw and Tomori. Go on
the young lad from chelsea is the better buy he can play CH or LB might get him for 35 mill and if EH wants Tomori Newcastle should leave well alone
give them RLC as bonus (Tonali replacement)
RLC and Tomori for 25-30M package deal
tomori + rlc for 50m (english tax)
