AC Milan are willing to listen to offers for Fikayo Tomori who has now found himself out of the first choice starting line-up, a report claims.

According to Calciomercato.it, all the signs suggest that the head coach Paulo Fonseca seems to want to persist with a pairing of Matteo Gabbia and Malick Thiaw, who played from the first minute against Juventus and Empoli in the two recent clean sheets.

Gabbia is one of the leaders of the side and his renewal is proof of how much Milan and Fonseca believe in him. The German, on the other hand, was good at taking advantage of Gabbia’s absence and has played his way back into the team.

That means that Tomori, for now, is having to try and make the most of opportunities when the pairing is rotated. The issue is that he and Strahinja Pavlovic as a duo have the worst record of any combination used, and most recently let in two goals against Slovan Bratislava.

The Englishman’s season continues to be full of ups and downs so there is an increasing feeling that he could be departing in the coming months. In the summer, Milan wanted a figure of around €30m to let him go, but now they could settle for a bit less.

Juventus are carefully monitoring the situation, but Newcastle United, Aston Villa and West Ham are in the mix too. A move back to the Premier League may well appeal to Tomori, who will no doubt still have England aspirations too.
