The defensive area of AC Milan should be reinforced after the exit of Alessio Romagnoli on a free and the possible move of Matteo Gabbia who needs to gain more experience and regular playing time in order to improve and grow. The Rossoneri directors, Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara have some profiles they are following closely such as English 23-year-old defender of Tottenham Japhet Tanganga and 26-year-old centre-back of Paris Saint-Germain Abdou Diallo.

According to the latest news shared by the daily Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, Abdou Diallo is now ahead of Tanganga in the race to join AC Milan. But, the arrival of a new defender will trigger the exit of another at Milanello.
Once AC Milan secures a new centre-back, Matteo Gabbia will be given green light to leave to Sampdoria on loan.
