AC Milan have loaned Matteo Gabbia to Villarreea and currently have four centre-backs available: Fikayo Tomori, Malick Thiaw, Pierre Kalulu, and Simon Kjaer. Another one is needed since there are three competitions to play in. Therefore, depth is needed.
According to what is reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, a name that is catching the attention of the Rossoneri is that of Clement Lenglet, a defender who is 28 years old. He plies his trade for FC Barcelona and spent the last season on loan at Tottenham.
La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Frenchman could cost around 10 million euros. At Milanello, he would reunite with his countrymen Theo Hernandez and Olivier Giroud. The player is liked by AC Milan because he is not too old and has important experience in European competitions throughout the years, including 50 appearances in the Champions League.
A reinforcement like Lenglet could prove very useful to Milan, which returned from the tour in the United States after conceding goals in all three matches against Real Madrid (three), Juventus (two), and Barcelona (one).
