The 20-year-old made his first appearance of the season on Wednesday night as he replaced Simon Kjaer for the final eight minute of the Rossoneri’s 3-0 win over SPAL in the Coppa Italia.

According to Calciomercato.com reporter Daniele Longo, Serie A side SPAL are interested in Gabbia, while Serie B due Crotone and Benevento, however Milan would not let him leave without a replacement.
