Rennes and Lille had expressed an interest in AC Milan's French midfielder Warren Bondo over the summer. On the final day of the transfer window, Brest and Troyes became interested in the 22-year-old, with Monaco also a possibility. Troyes would like to sign the player on loan. While AC Milan would prefer a move to Sassuolo, Bondo himself gives his preference to a return to France. Brest has also shown an interest in recent hours, and Monaco, who were offered the player, are interested in his profile but must first sell a player to proceed. Bondo, who has 9 caps for the France U20 team, joined AC Milan in February 2025 and is under contract until June 2029. His current market value is €6.00m, according to Transfermarkt. In July 2026, reports indicated AC Milan was asking for approximately €8 million for the player. He had transferred from Monza for a reported €10 million in February 2025.
