After the striker, Milan’s other priority in this winter transfer window is a centre-back, an explicit request from Massimiliano Allegri given the limited number of players available in that role.
In recent weeks, the names of Thiago Silva and Sergio Ramos have been mentioned, but these were never paths truly pursued by the Rossoneri management, especially as the Brazilian has since signed with Porto. There are options across Europe, but timing could make all the difference. So after the striker, Milan are once again searching for a central defender. According to Quotidiano Sportivo, which this morning ran the headline "Target Gila", the focus is on a high-level player whose contract with Lazio expires in June 2027.
