AC Milan

• Alvaro Morata to AC Milan, here we go soon! AC Milan are informing Atletico Madrid of plan to trigger his €13m release clause. Morata has verbally agreed on a four-year deal at Milan, leaving Atletico Madrid after a difficult time in Spain. Formal steps and medical will follow later this week.

• Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been pushing a lot to bring Morata to AC Milan as his favourite option. Negotiations for other strikers linked like Romelu Lukaku were never advanced as the Milan board, especially Ibrahimovic, strongly wanted Morata.

• More info on Morata and Milan in Matteo Moretto’s latest column.

• AC Milan will focus on other targets next, such as Roma striker Tammy Abraham, and Monaco midfielder Youssouf Fofana.

• Meanwhile, talks between AC Milan and Tottenham for Emerson Royal are currently on stand-by. Negotiations have gone cold after Spurs rejected two approaches, with the Premier League club asking for more than €20m. Milan and Spurs talks over Emerson are not advancing at this stage.

• Rafael Leao’s AC Milan release clause expiring - full details emerge as no one triggers the huge fee.

Ajax

• Official, confirmed: Bertrand Traore has sealed a transfer back to Ajax on a two-year deal valid until June 2026, joining from Villarreal.

Al Ittihad

• Houssem Aouar and Jan Oliveras are both on the verge of joining Saudi Pro League club Al Ittihad from AS Roma.

Al Nassr

• Al Nassr’s initial proposal to Man City for Ederson is worth €30m package. There’s a big gap in valuation as Man City won’t accept this fee, they want more than €50m to let Ederson leave. The Brazilian goalkeeper has already agreed to move to the Saudi Pro League, so it depends on the clubs now.
