Report: Milan dealt blow as Valencia turn to Spurs man instead of Castillejo

Samu Castillejo has been linked with a move away from AC Milan as soon as the transfer window opened this month. So far, however, no transfer has materialised and further complications have emerged. 

The winger has played just 122 minutes for Milan this season and it’s clear that he wants more playing. With a contract expiring in 2023, which the Rossoneri won’t renew, a move is thus a good option for both parties this season.

Valencia have been talked about as the most likely destination for Castillejo over the last two days. However, as reported by Matteo Moretto, the Spanish side are also in talks with Tottenham over Bryan Gil and an agreement is close.

Gil is currently ahead of Castillejo, therefore, and this was also confirmed by Sky Italia (via MilanNews). That report also stated that deadline day could be decisive for the future of the Rossoneri No.7. We will have a wait a little longer, in other words.
