AC Milan in talks for Nigerian midfielder Uche and German striker Füllkrug

Italian club AC Milan is reported to be negotiating the possible signing of 23‑year‑old Nigerian midfielder Christantus Uche. The player spent the 2023‑24 season on loan at Crystal Palace after being loaned from Getafe, where he made 14 league appearances without scoring. Getafe’s president Ángel Torres confirmed the club is ready to sell Uche, with a transfer fee around €15 million being discussed.

Meanwhile, the loan spell of 33‑year‑old German striker Niclas Füllkrug at Milan has ended, with the club opting not to trigger the purchase option. The striker returns to his parent club West Ham United, and Serie A side Fiorentina is reported as the front‑runner to acquire him for a fee near €3 million. Other Italian clubs, including Venezia, have also shown interest.
