Malick Thiaw Could Unlock AC Milan’s Move for Arsenal's Riccardo Calafiori

Riccardo Calafiori’s future at Arsenal appears uncertain after a challenging debut season marred by injury and underwhelming performances. The Italian left-back, who joined from Bologna last summer, has struggled to make a significant impact in North London, prompting Arsenal to reconsider his place in the squad. As a result, AC Milan—who had previously shown interest—may now have a renewed opportunity to secure his signature.
Reports suggest that Arsenal is open to selling Calafiori rather than loaning him out, signaling a lack of long-term confidence in his development. His market value is reportedly set around €35 million, which could prove a hurdle for Milan. However, a potential swap deal might ease the negotiation process, especially given Arsenal’s growing interest in Milan’s German center-back Malick Thiaw, who is also rumored to be exploring a summer move.
This mutual interest could pave the way for a player exchange that benefits both clubs. While Milan seeks to strengthen their defensive options on the left, Arsenal may view Thiaw as a valuable addition to bolster their central defense. The situation presents a strategic opening for Milan to bring Calafiori back to Serie A, particularly if Arsenal sees value in offloading a struggling player while acquiring one with Premier League potential.
