Gonçalo Inácio, a 24-year-old from Portugal, is one of three main options being considered by AC Milan for the centre-back position, with two other names also on the club's list. Internal talks are taking place about potential targets. Manager Amorim wants to sign a new central defender.

Although Inácio is appreciated by Milan, a deal is considered not easy as he is a key player for Sporting. His contract with the Portuguese club runs until 2030, and his current market value is €40.00m, according to Transfermarkt. In the 2025/2026 Liga Portugal season, Inácio made 29 appearances, scoring 2 goals and providing 3 assists, and he has 22 caps for his country. Liverpool and Manchester United have also been linked with the defender.
