Fikayo Tomori has asked AC Milan for time to evaluate a potential move back to England, with Coventry City interested.
The revolving door is in motion at Milan, and the centre-back department is certainly one that is likely to be affected. Mario Gila arrived in the city on Thursday night and will soon sign a five-year deal, so he looks like the new starting right-sided centre-back.

Calciomercato.com confirm that the arrival of the Spanish defender pushes Tomori closer to the exit door. The Englishman’s contract expires in 2027, and negotiations over a renewal have been stalled for several months.
Tomori, unlike in recent years, has opened the door to leaving Milan this transfer window and has already discussed the matter with his entourage. The Rossoneri hope to raise at least €15m from his sale, considering several inquiries have been received from the Premier League.
The most concrete one is from Frank Lampard’s Coventry City, who were recently promoted to the top flight of English football after a long absence. They have shown a very concrete interest in the former Chelsea player.
Tomori has asked for time to weigh the pros and cons of moving to Coventry and reuniting with Lampard, who showed a lot of faith in him at Stamford Bridge and before that at Derby County during a loan spell.
Tomori should leave, he never got to be at same level he had in his first 2 seasons.
all english player are like that..they peak early, only a very few of them can maintain their level
Get a grip he’s been a great player reliable in an average squad at times few injuries and the odd mistake ….but never shirked a tackle Grazie fika 💪💪💪🏴🏴
Agree 100%.
Sale Tomori
Anorher player I will miss. He has heart. But his brains is a bit lacking. And I won’t miss his angry or confused faces. They are laughable 😅 You know which faces I mean. He never thinks he has done anything wrong :p
Actually Tomori is one of the smartest players in the team, on and off the pitch. He learned Italian in light speed and he is excellent in possession with accurate crossing and passing and combined with Saelemaekers, the right side of Milan was usually very solid. Rember there was a time when Milan had the best defensive record in Serie A and Europe, you don’t achieve that and 24 games unbeaten with lousy defenders…He is aggressive yes, sometimes overly aggressive, but I love that in a defender. How many penalties did he give up though? none? how many mistakes that led to goals did he cause? You realize he was with the top 40 English players before the final WC team was cut? You don’t get there being average, you have to be one of the best defenders in England.
If he thinks he’s bigger and to good to play for the sky blues give him a queen berth
