Sky: Como eyeing out of favour Milan trio for January mercato – duo more likely

AC Milan will have a big focus on offloading talent in this mercato, and there are three players who are being eyed for moves to a fellow Serie A club. 

With ambitions high for Milan, there is a need to raise funds quickly, and three players could provide some huge financial help for the Rossoneri. This afternoon, Milan News have relayed a piece from Sky which states that Como have made contact for Fode Ballo-Toure, Divock Origi and Noah Okafor.

It is likely a dream situation for the Diavolo, considering how much they would like to part with Ballo-Toure and Origi, given the struggles to do so over the past 18 months. With Okafor’s move to Leipzig collapsing, a move away from Milan would also be appreciated, presumably.

The report suggests that contact for the long-term out-of-favour duo, Origi and Ballo-Toure, is more probable than Okafor, with the report suggesting that the interest in the Swissman is just that, given Okafor is ‘not convinced’ of the idea.

A move to Como would almost certainly be seen as a ‘step down’ for the winger, considering he was heading to Champions League side RB Leipzig earlier this month, a stark contrast to Como.
