AC Milan have reportedly passed up the chance to sign Kyle Walker permanently, with the full-back set to return to Manchester City this summer.

A Manchester City plan could be in tatters as it has been revealed that Newcastle are 'adamant' that they are 'refusing to sell' a star who the Citizens wanted to take over from a departing player.

When Kyle Walker made the decision to leave Manchester City to join AC Milan in January, he outlined three key objectives. To try something new, to win 100 caps for England (he currently has 95) and to show he can make a difference in Italy by helping AC Milan win trophies.

Manchester City have reportedly contacted AC Milan over the potential signing of midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, with talks said to be in the early stages. Before his move to Milan in 2023, Reijnders spent five years at AZ Alkmaar, making 128 appearances.
