According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan are in negotiations for Atlético striker Alexander Sørloth. The publication reports that Sørloth has informed Atlético that he wants a change of environment and has given his approval for a move to Milan. Milan's idea is to complete the deal for approximately 20 million euros plus bonuses before the World Cup. Gazzetta and specialized portals also report that agreements with the player are nearly finalized, and that final negotiations with Atlético and Sørloth are ongoing.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Alexander Sorloth has expressed full availability for a possible move to AC Milan next season. The publication reports that Milan's initial offer for Sorloth could be around 20 million euros plus add-ons. This amount is significantly lower than what Atletico Madrid might accept, as the Norwegian is considered a key part of their project. Sorloth signed in summer 2024 for a figure close to 35 million euros plus add-ons, and Atletico will only consider offers that recover or come close to their investment.

La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Sorloth has said yes to Milan. Sorloth is the chosen number 9 by Max Allegri's team to reinforce the attack.

According to Mundo Deportivo, AC Milan is focusing on Atlético de Madrid's Alexander Sorloth after deciding against signing Robert Lewandowski due to his high cost. Atlético de Madrid paid 32 million euros plus variables to Villarreal for the striker, and any potential departure would have to be for a sum greater than that amount. The report adds that if AC Milan qualifies for the Champions League, it would be guaranteed a minimum of 70 million euros from UEFA, providing the financial capacity for an investment. A transfer would be dependent on Sorloth pushing for a move and on Atlético receiving an offer of more than 45 million euros.
