Romano: Milan remain obsessed with Inacio but Fonseca’s arrival could change things

AC Milan remain heavily interested in signing Sporting CP defender Goncalo Inacio ahead of the January transfer window, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano. Romano confirmed that Milan are determined to add another central defender following summer pursuit efforts. Inacio has remained on the club's shortlist, though Paulo Fonseca's arrival as Sporting manager could potentially impact the dynamics of any prospective transfer.

During the summer, Milan explored several formulas for Inacio, including an expensive loan with an option to buy, but Sporting rejected those proposals. Romano noted that while Milan maintain strong relationships with the defender's representatives, other defensive targets are also under consideration alongside Inacio.
