Milan, Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund also in for Nkunku: the asking price to sell him
The French forward is among the players cut by Amorim and is looking for a new team.
Christopher Nkunku's time at AC Milan is effectively over after just one year. The 1997-born forward joined Milan from Chelsea in the summer of 2025, but Ruben Amorim has placed him among the players not considered useful to his project, leaving him out of the squad and on the market.
He is not part of the squad today for the friendly AC Milan are playing in Poland against Manchester United, and on Friday he left Milanello for personal reasons. Interest around him is now picking up and, alongside the rumours linking him with Roma and Manchester United, two other clubs have made their move in the last few hours.
RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund
Matteo Moretto reports that two of Germany's top clubs, RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund, have also set their sights on Nkunku, with Dortmund today playing a friendly against Roma at the Westfalenstadion.
How much AC Milan are asking for
AC Milan spent €37 million plus €5 million in bonuses, which were not triggered, to bring Nkunku to Milan last summer. To avoid taking a capital loss, they would therefore need a permanent sale worth €30 million, figures currently above the market, or a paid loan with an option or obligation to buy of at least €22.6 million. Difficult, but not impossible. Milan remain hopeful. Among Amorim's outcasts, the Frenchman is certainly the one with the strongest market right now.
