Sunderland, Brentford Make Enquiries for AC Milan’s Santiago Giménez as January Options Open

Milan will only pursue a replacement striker in January if he departs.

Overview

  • Sunderland are reported as a leading candidate for the Mexican forward, with Brentford also in contact about a possible January move.
  • Club reporting indicates Milan’s top winter priority is an experienced centre-back, and a new No. 9 would be considered only if Giménez leaves.
  • A potential swap with West Ham’s Niclas Füllkrug has been floated by multiple outlets as one scenario under evaluation.
  • Giménez has yet to score in Serie A this season and has been working back from a lingering ankle issue that disrupted his minutes.
  • Despite doubts over his fit under Massimiliano Allegri, he is said to prioritize staying at Milan and remains under contract through 2029.
