Milan has the option to re-sign 19-year-old midfielder Mattia Liberali from Catanzaro for €3 million by activating a clause, but a return is considered unlikely. Como, Sassuolo, Bologna, and Cagliari are also interested in the player, who is under contract until June 2029. Reports from June 2026 mention a €10 million asking price set by Catanzaro's president, a release clause of €6 million has been cited, and AC Milan holds a 50% sell-on clause.
