Fikayo Tomori transfer saga
Overview
In late July 2026, AC Milan set a €20 million valuation for defender Fikayo Tomori after receiving a €15 million offer from Newcastle United. The club noted that Tomori had fallen down the pecking order following the €30 million signing of centre-back Mario Gila, prompting interest from several English sides—including West Ham, Hull City, Coventry City—and even Juventus. A few days later, Liverpool entered direct negotiations with Milan, aiming to sign Tomori for roughly €20 million. Manager Andoni Iraola, newly appointed, sought the experienced defender to replace Ibrahima Konaté, who had left on a free transfer to Real Madrid. While Newcastle’s interest remained reported, Liverpool emerged as the primary suitor in the negotiations. By mid-August, reports indicated that AC Milan had officially excluded Tomori from its future plans. This development coincided with interest from Juventus, who are monitoring the defender alongside Youssouf Fofana. While Milan remains open to offers in the €15 million to €20 million range, the club continues to search for central defensive options to support manager Ruben Amorim. By late August, the transfer situation evolved as reports suggested Milan might accept as little as €5 million for Tomori to avoid a capital loss, given his contract expires in 2027. Although Tomori featured in pre-season due to a lack of alternatives, the presence of Mario Gila, Filippo Terracciano, and Koni De Winter has limited his playing time. Aston Villa has emerged as a primary interested party, with discussions reportedly ongoing regarding the terms of a potential move. Following the close of the transfer window, Tomori is set to rejoin the AC Milan first team after failing to secure a move. Despite being excluded from Ruben Amorim’s pre-season plans and training separately, the defender reportedly rejected multiple offers, including interest from Fulham and Newcastle United.
