The report claims that Moncada has already contacted the defender's agent to find out his availability. However, whether Fiorentina will agree to sell Comuzzo remains to be seen, as they already rejected a €30m bid from Napoli in the January transfer window.
Growing reports in Italy suggest Milan will try to restore a strong Italian core in the team in 2025-26.
Chiesa was already mentioned as a possible target for next season, and Calciomercato.com confirms the Italian is among those watched by Moncada.
In this case, no contact has yet been established with Liverpool or the player's agent, Fali Ramadani, who is said to be on excellent terms with the Rossoneri Technical Director.

The roster features players from 21 different clubs across MLS, Europe, and beyond. Below is the full, alphabetized player list, including each player's position and club affiliation. 2025 USMNT Gold Cup Roster Goalkeepers Chris Brady (Chicago Fire FC) Matt Freese (New York City FC) Matt Turner (Crystal Palace FC) Defenders Alex Freeman (Orlando City SC) Nathan Harriel (Philadelphia Union) Mark McKenzie (Toulouse FC) Tim Ream (Charlotte FC) Chris Richards (Crystal Palace FC) Miles Robinson (FC Cincinnati) John Tolkin (Holstein Kiel) Walker Zimmerman (Nashville SC) Midfielders Brenden Aaronson (Leeds United FC) Tyler Adams (AFC Bournemouth) Max Arfsten (Columbus Crew) Sebastian Berhalter (Vancouver Whitecaps FC) Johnny Cardoso (Real Betis) Luca de la Torre (San Diego FC) Diego Luna (Real Salt Lake) Jack McGlynn (Houston Dynamo) Quinn Sullivan (Philadelphia Union) Malik Tillman (PSV Eindhoven) Forwards Paxten Aaronson (FC Utrecht) Patrick Agyemang (Charlotte FC) Damion Downs (FC Köln) Brian White (Vancouver Whitecaps FC) Haji Wright (Coventry City FC) Who is missing from the USMNT Gold Cup roster? FOX Sports reported on Wednesday that star attacker Christian Pulisic would skip this summer's tournament following two grueling seasons with Italian club A.C. Milan. Weston McKennie and Tim Weah are unavailable because Juventus is participating in the FIFA Club World Cup instead, as is Gio Reyna's Borussia Pulisic's absence, U.S. Soccer sporting director Matt Crocker said in a statement:"Christian and his team approached the Federation and the coaching staff about the possibility of stepping back this summer, given the amount of matches he has played in the past two years at both the club and international level with very little break. "After thoughtful discussions and careful consideration, we made the collective decision that this is the right moment for him to get the rest he needs. The objective is to ensure he's fully prepared to perform at the highest level next season." "The principal objective is the World Cup," Pochettino told reporters via Zoom shortly after Thursday's announcement. "We decided the best [thing] for him and for the national team is the decision that we make." Several other prominent names are absent; 2024 U.S. Soccer Male Athlete of the Year Antonee "Jedi" Robinson is still dealing with the minor injuries that prevented him from participating in the Concacaf Nations League final four in March. Yunus Musah was supposed to be with their USMNT next month; Pochettino said he withdrew from consideration earlier this week for personal reasons. Joe Scally, Josh Sargent and Tanner Tessmann, who all started the Nations League semifinal loss to Panama, were also left off the squad, which will be trimmed to 26 on June 4, when the final list must be submitted to Concacaf. The Gold Cup begins on June 14, with the Americans kicking off group play against Trinidad and Tobago the following day. When does the USMNT play in the 2025 Gold Cup? The USMNT will have three group stage games.

Darwin Nunez open to Al-Hilal move
Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez is reportedly open to a high-profile transfer to Al‑Hilal, according to Foot Mercato. The Saudi Pro League outfit have made initial contact with Nunez's representatives, although no offer has been tabled yet. Advertisement Nunez, who joined Liverpool from Benfica in 2022, has endured an inconsistent spell in the Premier League, struggling to fully adapt to the demands of English football. Although the 25-year-old has shown flashes of brilliance in a Liverpool shirt, his finishing and decision-making have come under scrutiny. Nunez has fallen down the pecking order under new Liverpool manager Arne Slot, starting just eight league matches and scoring five goals in the 2024/25 season. Unsurprisingly, the Uruguayan has been linked with a move away from Anfield this summer, with Atletico Madrid believed to be keen on snapping him up. Advertisement However, Los Colchoneros may now have to look elsewhere in their search for offensive reinforcement as Nunez warms up to the idea of moving to the Middle East. Following their failed pursuit of Victor Osimhen, Al-Hilal are moving fast on to other targets as they look to get in some new faces in time for the upcoming Club World Cup. A switch to Al-Hilal would offer Nunez a more lucrative contract as well as the opportunity to rediscover the devastating touch in front of goal that convinced Liverpool to break their transfer record for him. Nunez's potential departure would free up more funds for new signings as Liverpool close in on a mammoth deal to sign Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. The Reds are also reportedly eyeing a deal for Eintracht Frankfurt hitman Hugo Ekitike and could spend as much as €300 million this summer.

Lenglet terminates Barcelona contract to complete Atletico Madrid move
Atletico Madrid have completed the signing of Clement Lenglet after he terminated his contract with Barcelona, as confirmed by both clubs. The 29-year-old joined the Catalan giants in 2018 from Sevilla, and he initially looked impressive. However, his form nosedived. Advertisement After loan spells at Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa, Lenglet moved to Atletico on a season-long loan last summer. Following a tough start, the Frenchman gradually established himself as a regular for Diego Simeone's side, making 34 appearances in all competitions. The former Nancy star joins Atletico on a free transfer, penning a three-year deal until 2028 with a reduced salary. Barcelona will cover part of Lenglet's wages, as he had two years remaining on his previous contract. The Catalan giants will save approximately €16 million with his departure. Lenglet's resurgence also saw him return to the French national team this month after nearly a four-year absence. He started in the Nations League semi-final clash against Spain, which Les Bleus lost 5-4. Advertisement With Axel Witsel set to leave Wanda Metropolitano this summer upon the expiry of his contract, Atletico are looking to sign another top-class centre-back. Tottenham Hotspur's Cristian Romero has been earmarked as their primary target. The 2022 World Cup winner is also keen to join Atletico, thanks to the Argentine contingent at the club, which includes Rodrigo De Paul, Julian Alvarez, Nahuel Molina and Giuliano Simeone. However, Spurs are demanding around €70m to part ways with Romero, whose contract runs until 2027.
