Amorim targets Van Dijk as AC Milan plans defensive overhaul

Ruben Amorim, the new head coach of AC Milan, aims to strengthen the club's defense with a significant revamp. According to reports, Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk is a key target, although an exit seems unlikely as Liverpool faces defensive challenges themselves. Other potential options include Portuguese defenders Goncalo Inacio and Andre Silva. Meanwhile, Real Madrid is considering selling Aurélien Tchouaméni, who is on Manchester United's radar. Bournemouth has confirmed Alex Scott is not for sale, despite interest from multiple Premier League clubs. Additionally, Bournemouth, Everton, and Fulham are pursuing Keito Nakamura, who has impressed at the World Cup and has a conditional release option with Reims.
