Al-Hilal join race for Tomori but fall short of Milan’s €20m price

By admin — In News — July 16, 2026

   ​Fikayo Tomori’s Milan career looks increasingly likely to end this summer, with Al-Hilal the latest club to move for the England defender.According to Calciomercato.com, via MilanNews24, the Saudi side have identified Tomori as a target to strengthen their defence for next season.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementMilan value the 1997-born centre-back at around €20 million, however, and the figures being floated from Riyadh, an offer in the €12-13 million range, fall well short of what the Rossoneri consider acceptable.MILAN, ITALY – MARCH 08: Fikayo Tomori of AC Milan celebrates the victory at the end of the Serie A match between AC Milan and FC Internazionale at Giuseppe Meazza Stadium on March 08, 2026 in Milan, Italy.
