Sky: Milan centre-back open to move as Aston Villa make late approach | OneFootball

Fikayo Tomori is the subject of interest from clubs in the Premier League and a late exit cannot be ruled out, according to a report.

Sky report that as Alvaro Morata’s farewell from Milan approaches, the situation regarding Tomori must be monitored. The former Chelsea defender was first linked with Juventus, then he was taken off the market, but at this moment with the right offer he could leave too.

In the last few hours Aston Villa – who have already qualified for the Champions League round of 16 – have started to come forward for him again. The English have the money to sign him after selling Jhon Durán to Saudi Arabia.

As for the defender’s stance, he has realised that not even with the change in head coach to Sérgio Conceiçao will he have a guaranteed starting place at Milan, so he would accept the idea of a move to Villa as per the report.

What remains to be seen is whether Villa put forward a package that can convince Milan to sell this late in the mercato. Not only that, but there would surely be the requirement for a replacement to be found, given that Matteo Gabbia and Malick Thiaw are currently out injured.
