"In January, AC Milan will ideally sign a defender, but it seems that they will be pushed back due to the pricing of one of their targets. Signing another centre-back is a must in January, even if Igli Tare has already suggested that the defence is fine. Before the Cagliari game, he stated that the club were 'especially happy' with the backline, but questions can be asked. Perhaps it was meant in terms of performance, but if one player gets injured, there are big gaps in the depth."
"As a result, most would plead with the Rossoneri to add additional cover this month, and whilst a permanent long-term addition would be nice, a short-term option would likely be enough for now, just to see through the season. The ideal, it seems, would be Mario Gila, whose past with Tare makes him an easy target. However, the Diavolo will not find it easy to sign him this month."
AC Milan aims to sign a defender in the January transfer window and prioritizes adding another centre-back to bolster defensive depth. Sporting director Igli Tare expressed that the current backline is 'especially happy', but squad depth would suffer significantly if an injury occurs. The club would accept a short-term defensive signing to cover the remainder of the season, though a permanent long-term option would be preferable. Mario Gila is considered an ideal target due to his connection with Tare, but Lazio reportedly demand €30–35 million, a fee beyond Milan's reach this window. Recruitment efforts will continue, with summer possibilities considered.
