"During the winter mercato, Milan have been linked with several centre-backs, from Thiago Silva and Joe Gomez to Axel Disasi and Nathan Ake. For various reasons none of these ideas materialised, and now the department is set to stay as it is. According to Corriere dello Sport (via MilanPress), Milan considered the purchase of Disasi from Chelsea until the very last minute, but after 48 hours of waiting they decided not to proceed."
"For this reason, the Frenchman will go to West Ham. The Frenchman represented the best opportunity for the directors to seize, and now finding another option is very difficult because of the limited time available. Jose Maria Gimenez and Radu Dragusin have both been linked, but it seems time will run out."
Milan pursued several centre-backs during the winter mercato, including Thiago Silva, Joe Gomez, Axel Disasi and Nathan Ake. None of those approaches were completed, leaving the defensive department unchanged for the remainder of the window. Milan considered signing Disasi from Chelsea until the last minute but withdrew after 48 hours of waiting, allowing Disasi to move to West Ham. Jose Maria Gimenez and Radu Dragusin were monitored as alternatives, but limited time makes another addition unlikely. Koni De Winter has earned increasing playing time and scored against Roma, and David Odogu could remain despite limited use and loan talk.
