Sky: Walker, Rashford, Felix, Tomori – the latest updates on Milan’s mercato | OneFootball

After over two weeks with very little movement, AC Milan’s January transfer window might be about to spring into life in the coming days.

According to what is being reported by Sky (via MilanNews), Milan have decided to try and secure the signing of Kyle Walker, thus taking the only slot available for English players. That is largely because Manchester United want 75% of Marcus Rashford’s salary covering in any loan deal.

An agreement has been reached with the Manchester City player, who was waiting for Milan. In the next few hours the Rossoneri will make an official offer to sign the player on loan with an option to buy included.

Milan’s choice to go for the England international is a prelude to a possible departure for Fikayo Tomori, with Juventus trying hard to get him. It remains to be seen whether Milan will say yes and the player will say yes, because the defender would like to stay at least until the end of the season.

Given that Milan play Juventus tonight at the Allianz Stadium there could be further discussions. The Bianconeri will also use any Tomori negotiations to talk about an early buy-out of Pierre Kalulu, hoping that this can soften their stance.

Having chosen Walker and abandoned Rashford, Sky add that Milan will now need an EU forward. The directors asked about Joao Felix but Chelsea are not open to a loan at present, even though his appearances in the Premier League have been scarce.
