"AC Milan want to sign a new central defender in the January window after having got a striker through the door, and more names have emerged. As La Gazzetta dello Sport recall, a quick look at the Milan bench in the last league match against Verona shows the urgency. Without Matteo Gabbia and with Koni De Winter in his place, the only centre-back was the young David Odogu, who made his Serie A debut at 3-0 up."
"Over the summer, the possibility of signing Kim Min-jae was explored by the Milan directors. Nothing came of it, mostly for financial reasons: the centre-back earns a high salary in Germany. Has the situation changed in recent months? Kim hasn't played much (nine Bundesliga games for 525 minutes, five in the Champions League for 161 minutes, two in the German Cup for 94 minutes, and one in the German Super Cup for 10 minutes), despite the Bavarians' defensive emergency."
AC Milan wants to sign a central defender in the January window after adding a striker. The bench situation during the Verona match left the club with only young David Odogu as a centre-back, highlighting a need for more experienced cover. Sporting director Igli Tare prefers an experienced player on loan. Kim Min-jae was explored but carries a high salary, has seen limited minutes recently, and is currently sidelined with a muscle issue. Axel Disasi is more accessible but lacks Serie A experience and recent playing rhythm, while Niklas Süle does not currently offer convincing value for money.
