Messi's possible departure from PSG will free up space for new additions, and the French club's idea is to strengthen the defensive area. The arrival of Milan Skriniar on a free transfer from Inter is not enough, as the Slovakian's back surgery requires caution, and so further additions are being sought. The list of candidates is already long and revealed by L'Equipe, but in addition to Aymeric Laporte from Manchester City, Evan N'Dicka of Eintracht Frankfurt, Monaco's Axel Disasi, and Lucas Hernandez who plies his trade for Bayern Munich, there is also an option that leads to Italy: according to the French newspaper, Campos is also considering Fikayo Tomori who is an important player for AC Milan.
This interest arises from the growth shown by the Englishman since his arrival in Milan in January 2021 and adds to the surveys already conducted by Manchester United and Tottenham, who are both in search of defenders for the summer, with Tomori being their preferred choice.
Now, PSG are also in the race, but like the Red Devils and Spurs, they have to deal with two significant obstacles: firstly, Tomori's willingness to continue his adventure in the Rossoneri, and secondly, Milan's intention to keep hold of him, with a contract until 2027. There is also another aspect, the 30 million euros paid to Chelsea for Tomori's redemption in the summer of 2022, which brings the evaluation of any potential deal to very high figures, but PSG's financial availability is well-known. The courtship for Tomori is increasing, but AC Milan managers do not want to let go, as per Calciomercato.com.
