Tomori Reinstated in AC Milan First Team After Fulham Move Collapses

Milan moved him back into training after transfer talks with Fulham failed, a choice driven by the club’s lack of a new centre-back and Matteo Gabbia’s recent ankle problem.

Overview

Tomori was informed he would rejoin the first team and returned to squad training on Thursday after personal terms with Fulham could not be agreed and Milan declined to complete a sale.
Fulham’s late-window approach fell apart because the clubs did not reach a transfer deal and the player could not agree personal terms with the London side.
Coach Ruben Amorim made the decision to reintegrate Tomori in part because Milan did not sign another central defender this window, leaving the squad short of depth.
Tomori has not played since 5 August, so he must rebuild match fitness and his tactical understanding with Amorim before he is fully ready to start.
The 28-year-old is in the final year of his contract and has rejected past moves, which means his short-term role at Milan and his status as a free agent next summer will shape where he plays next.
