The Rossoneri are on the verge of signing Kyle Walker from Manchester City, but their captain, Davide Calabria, sees his contract expire in June, so it remains to be seen whether the Rossoneri will be open to selling Emerson six months after signing him from Tottenham.

The Rossoneri will also reshuffle their attack and are waiting for offers for Noah Okafor. The Swiss international’s move to RB Leipzig collapsed earlier this month as the striker needs to get back in shape after a recent injury.

According to Gazzetta*, Premier League sides West Ham and Bournemouth are among the clubs interested in the 24-year-old who is no longer part of the Rossoneri’s plans with the Serie A giants in talks for Chelsea’s Joao Felix.
