Overview

• OneFootball, citing Calcio Mercato, reports that Milan plan to reinforce their back line in January under Massimiliano Allegri’s three-man system, with Joe Gomez again on their list.
• The clubs held advanced discussions late in the summer window, but the move fell through when Liverpool failed to secure a replacement before the deadline.
• Gomez, 28, has been limited to two Premier League appearances totaling 29 minutes under new manager Arne Slot this season.
• Milan believe his lack of game time could open a path to negotiations and view him as an athletic, experienced fit for Allegri’s setup.
• Any structured Milan proposal would require a board-level call at Anfield, with Liverpool’s response likely to hinge on identifying an adequate successor.
