Noni Madueke (Chelsea)

Noni Madueke has been linked with a Chelsea exit ever since his arrival at Stamford Bridge and rumours of a departure remain rife ahead of the 2025 summer window.

Madueke has established himself as a key player under Enzo Maresca this term, but Estevao Willian is expected to provide competition next season, while Chelsea are also hoping to sign another new winger before the Club World Cup.

Newcastle United are known admirers of the England international, although Milan are reportedly eager to acquire his signature too amid the uncertain future of Rafael Leao.

Maxim De Cuyper (Club Brugge)

Theo Hernandez may be set to leave AC Milan this summer and the Italian giants are hoping to sign Maxim De Cuyper as his replacement if the Frenchman does in fact depart.

The Belgium star has impressed during his time at Club Brugge and he has been widely tipped to leave the club this summer, with Milan pushing to win the race for his signature.

The Rossoneri have reportedly held talks with De Cuyper’s agent, although Juventus are also interested in completing a deal amid concerns that Andrea Cambiaso will leave Turin in order to join Manchester City.

Javi Guerra (Valencia)

AC Milan are reportedly monitoring Valencia midfielder Javi Guerra as they consider a possible summer bid for the Spaniard.

Guerra has been touted to leave Valencia for several years, amid widespread interest from across Europe, but an exit could be on the cards this summer as his current deal with the club is due to expire in 2027.

Guerra is reportedly valued at around €20 million and Milan are said to be scouting him extensively ahead of the summer window.

Kyle Walker (Man City)

Kyle Walker is all but guaranteed to leave Man City on a permanent deal this summer and Milan have been tipped to sign the Englishman when his loan spell ends in July.

Walker has been a key player for Milan since his arrival on loan during the winter window and the Italian side have the option to make the deal permanent for a measly fee of €5 million.

They are currently expected to sign Walker this summer, although the veteran is reportedly destined to leave Man City even if Milan opt against finalising a permanent deal.

Lorenzo Lucca (Udinese)

Milan decided to sign Feyenoord striker Santiago Gimenez during the January transfer window, but they remain interested in Lorenzo Lucca and could pursue a deal this summer.

The Udinese star is considered to be one of Serie A’s best forwards and Milan are eyeing a possible transfer as they look to bolster the attacking options available to Sergio Conceicao.

Inter Milan and Manchester United are also among the clubs monitoring Lucca’s form at Udinese ahead of the summer, however, so Milan may be required to act swiftly in order to secure his signature.
