AC Milan have submitted an official bid to Liverpool for defender Joe Gomez and negotiations are underway between the clubs. Milan monitored Gomez for several weeks before making a formal proposal to sign him permanently. Gomez is Liverpool's longest-serving current player with 242 appearances. Milan seek defensive reinforcement after injuries exposed a lack of depth and view Gomez as a versatile option able to play centre-back, right-back and left-back. Gomez has primarily been a backup at Liverpool and is seeking a more prominent role. Liverpool are open to selling only if they secure Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace.
According to transfer news expert Fabrizio Romano, AC Milan have submitted an official bid to Liverpool for defender Joe Gomez, with negotiations now underway between the two clubs. The Italian giants have been monitoring Gomez for several weeks, and after internal discussions, they have moved forward with a formal proposal to secure his services on a permanent transfer. The English defender is currently the longest serving Liverpool player. In his career so far, he has made 242 appearances for the Reds.
AC Milan's defensive reinforcement plan Milan are keen to strengthen their defensive options ahead of a challenging season. Injuries in recent campaigns have exposed the Rossoneri's lack of depth, and Gomez, with his experience at both Premier League and international level, is viewed as a versatile addition, a player who can play as a centre-back as well as a right-back and left-back.
While Liverpool are open to the deal, Romano makes it clear that Gomez will only be allowed to leave if Liverpool complete the signing of Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace. The Reds have already lodged a 35 million bid for the England international, who has reportedly agreed personal terms with the Merseyside club. Palace, however, have yet to accept the offer, holding out for a higher fee.
