"With AC Milan interested in signing a senior defender in January, Massimiliano Allegri repeatedly asked for Federico Gatti. However, it was not possible, at least then. Throughout last month, Gatti's name was heavily repeated, and it makes sense why. The Italian worked heavily with Allegri, and he would fit the bill for what Milan wanted. A physical defender with experience in Serie A."
"Though bringing him to Milanello proved to be anything but, with Juventus pushing back against the Rossoneri when they made their attempts to sign him. Things have now changed, it seems. After coming back from injury, Gatti had hoped to fight for a place in Luciano Spalletti's team. So far, he has not managed to gain a spot, and Matteo Moretto reports that he could be sold in the next few months, via Calciomercato.com."
"The Turin outfit are asking for almost €25 million for his departure, and there is plenty of interest from Italy and abroad. It is no surprise, then, that the Diavolo are in the picture, given their extensive pursuit of him in January. Allegri actually called the Italian last month, seeking clarification on his situation, but there were no advancements due to the Bianconeri's reluctance to sell. In a few months, there may be a relaunch."
AC Milan pursued Federico Gatti in January with Massimiliano Allegri repeatedly requesting him, but Juventus resisted selling. Gatti trained with Allegri previously and presents a physical profile with Serie A experience that suited Milan's needs. Returning from injury, Gatti aimed to compete for a place under Luciano Spalletti but has failed to secure regular minutes. Juventus now values him at almost €25 million amid interest from clubs in Italy and abroad. Allegri contacted Gatti recently to clarify his situation, and Juventus' current reluctance delayed any move; a renewed Milan approach may arrive in a few months.
