AC Milan signs young defender Sankhoun Diawara

AC Milan announced the signing of 18‑year‑old left‑back/centre‑back Sankhoun Diawara. The French‑Senegalese defender, 190 cm tall, comes from Troyes where he helped the club gain promotion to Ligue 1 and earned two caps with France’s U‑19 side. Milan expect him to add depth to the back line and develop under manager Ruben Amorim.

Separately, media reports suggest Milan and Juventus are exploring a possible loan swap that could see Douglas Luiz move to Milan while Samuele Ricci heads to Juventus. The proposal remains speculative and no agreement has been reached yet.
