AC Milan are reportedly interested in 20-year-old German-Turkish attacking midfielder Mert Kömür, but face significant competition from other clubs including Napoli, FC Porto, and PSV. PSV is keen on attempting to sign the player. Although Kömür's contract with FC Augsburg extends to the summer of 2029, the club is said to be open to selling him for a good offer. A previous bid of twelve million euros from Besiktas during the winter was rejected by the German club.
Scouts from the interested teams were reportedly present to watch Kömür during the last match for Germany Under 21, for whom he has five caps, and talks regarding a transfer are expected to start soon. Kömür, who joined Augsburg in July 2023, has scored 3 goals and provided 1 assist in 2 Bundesliga appearances this season. His current Transfermarkt market value is €12.00m. A report from February 2026 indicated that Augsburg might be willing to negotiate for a package significantly exceeding €15 million.
