Andoni Iraola has work to do on his defence at Liverpool (Picture: Getty Images) Fikayo Tomori is being tipped for a departure from AC Milan this summer and there is plenty of Premier League interest in the England international. The 28-year-old has been with the Serie A giants since 2021 when he joined from Chelsea, initially on loan before making the move permanent for £25 million. The six-cap England international won Serie A in his first season at the club, but success has been harder to come by since. Milan finished fifth in the Italian top flight last season, leading to Max Allegri being sacked as manager and replaced by Ruben Amorim.

Tomori was left on the bench as Milan were beaten 3-0 by his former side Chelsea in a pre-season friendly on Saturday. That does not necessarily spell the end of the centre-back’s time at the club, but given Amorim made 10 changes, it was not a good sign. With less than a year left on his contract at the San Siro, Italian publication Quotidiano Sportivo reports that he is likely to be sold this summer. Fikayo Tomori has been at AC Milan since 2021 (Picture: PA Wire) The report states that there is no shortage of interest from the Premier League, with a range of clubs keen on his signature. Liverpool are looking to revamp their defence under new boss Andoni Iraola and the same can be said about Newcastle under Matthias Jaissle. Both the Reds and the Magpies are interested in bringing Tomori back to England. Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Fikayo Tomori with Chelsea’s Tosin Adarabioyo (Picture: Getty Images) Newly-promoted Coventry City have also been credited with an interest and have the chance of pulling off a huge coup due to manager Frank Lampard’s connection with Tomori. The former England midfielder managed Tomori during his spell at Derby County and then guided his breakthrough into the first team at Chelsea. Attracting the experienced centre-back from AC Milan would be a huge signing for the Sky Blues, but clearly it is a huge task for Lampard to persuade Tomori with the likes of Liverpool also interested.

Anas asked: Nizaar, do you believe Jordan Henderson and Danny Welbeck are the missing pieces in Chelsea's team? Would it be enough should Enzo Fernandez and Pedro Neto depart? Nizaar said: I think, from a personality perspective, that both Jordan Henderson and Danny Welbeck fit that missing piece.
Many believe Andoni Iraola's style is more aligned with the 'heavy metal' football Anfield had come to love under Jurgen Klopp. With teams more likely to sit deep against Liverpool, having lots of possession is a newer challenge Iraola has to tackle, and he has looked to do this while sticking to the intense and chaotic style that typified his previous sides. Liverpool have looked to build up short at times with their goalkeeper, four defenders and one or two central midfielders deep.
Pedro Neto is wanted by Arsenal as well as Man City, Chelsea insider Simon Phillips has reported today.

Following another 10-hour private flight to Hong Kong, the Chelsea squad stayed at the Kerry Hotel, where local fans regularly gathered in the hope of securing selfies and autographs. Although the attention remained positive, the level of excitement required heightened security, with some supporters even booking rooms in the same hotel in the hope of encountering players in lifts and public areas. Cole Palmer and Levi Colwill were given the freedom to go shopping after picking up knocks against Spurs, but videos of their outing showed just how well-known they were.
Summer signing Antonio Silva says he is a "modern centre-back" who will suit Bournemouth's football after he made his second pre-season appearance for the club against Real Betis on Saturday. The 22-year-old joined the Cherries at the start of August from his boyhood club Benfica in Portugal, and believes he is adjusting well to the change of scenery. "My adaptation has been very good and I'm very happy to be here," Silva told BBC Radio Solent.
