Milan's transfer window activity continues to generate headlines, with new links emerging constantly. Our analysis of the past seven days shows the club has been tied to 21 possible arrivals and 14 potential exits. The latest news on some of the most important transfer rumours surrounding the Rossoneri is detailed below.
Bruno Fernandes
On Thursday, the BBC reported that Milan is strongly interested in signing Bruno Fernandes. The player has a release clause of £57 million valid for foreign clubs and has only one year left on his contract with Manchester United, which includes an option for an additional season. No agreement has been reached for an extension. Fernandes previously rejected an offer from Al-Hilal and reportedly felt 'hurt' when Manchester United's management told him the decision was his. While English media report his intention is to stay at Manchester United, the club is aiming to reduce its wage bill. Also on Thursday, BBC Sport journalist Simon Stone noted on X that Juventus, AC Milan, and Galatasaray are interested in the Portugal international. Stone also mentioned that Fernandes is in the final year of his contract, with an option to extend, and no new agreement has been reached. Separately, sources have previously indicated that Juventus had inquired about signing the 31-year-old.
Nuno Tavares
Nuno Tavares is particularly appreciated by Milan, and on Saturday, La Repubblica reported that Lazio values the player at approximately €20 million. The report suggests he could be part of a swap deal involving Fikayo Tomori, though this scenario is still to be defined. A day earlier, on Friday, Corriere dello Sport noted that new coach Gattuso considers Tavares an unknown quantity as he has not trained during the current pre-season. According to Tuttomercato on the same day, the Lazio player has been offered to Milan as an alternative for the wing, but doubts exist about his physical reliability.
Ethan Nwaneri
Milan wants Ethan Nwaneri, and Arsenal is considering whether to loan him out. In a press conference on Friday, Mikel Arteta expressed a wish for Nwaneri to stay but acknowledged the need to consider what is best for the player, stating that he needs to play football. Arteta added that if Nwaneri stays, it will be because the club can guarantee him minutes. Also on Friday, La Gazzetta dello Sport reported that Milan submitted a loan offer with a €40 million option to buy, which Arsenal rejected. Nwaneri remains one of the main targets for the attacking midfield position.
Arda Güler
According to Anthony Joseph on Friday, Arda Güler could potentially move from Real Madrid to AC Milan on loan.
Darío Osorio
Darío Osorio from Midtjylland is still considered an option for Milan, according to a La Gazzetta dello Sport report on Friday. Earlier in the week, on Monday, Tuttomercato stated that the 22-year-old currently appears to be the most convincing attacking profile for the club.
Brooke Norton-Cuffy
On Wednesday, Tuttomercato reported that Milan is interested in acquiring Brooke Norton-Cuffy and has made an inquiry for him. This followed a report from Nicolo Schira on Monday, which stated that an intermediary had recently offered the player to AC Milan and the matter was under consideration.
Nicola Zalewski
On Saturday, Antonello Gioia of 'Corriere dello Sport' stated in an interview with Kanał Sportowy that Nicola Zalewski was offered to AC Milan, but the club is not interested in him. Gioia clarified that these were just rumors and confirmed that while an offer was made, Milan is not pursuing the player. A day earlier, Tuttomercato reported that Zalewski was starting for Atalanta despite the transfer rumors.
