Michael Folorunsho's future at Napoli appears uncertain, with the Italian midfielder facing a potential summer departure after falling out of favour with manager Antonio Conte. Reports suggest AC Milan are among the clubs interested in securing his services, as they seek to strengthen their midfield options.
Folorunsho, who featured for Italy at the European Championships, spent the previous season on loan at Hellas Verona, where he impressed with his performances. However, his return to Napoli has been marred by a strained relationship with Conte, who is reportedly open to letting the midfielder leave this summer.
According to Italian outlet TuttoMercatoWeb, Milan have initiated contact with Napoli to explore the possibility of a transfer. The Rossoneri are keen to gauge the cost and practicality of a potential move, though they remain primarily focused on securing the signing of Youssouf Fofana.
Milan are not alone in their pursuit of the 26-year-old, with Atalanta, Fiorentina and Lazio also expressing interest. Atalanta had previously been close to securing Folorunsho's signature before a change in priorities following Gianluca Scamacca's ACL injury.
Milan manager Paulo Fonseca is reportedly impressed by Folorunsho's versatility, believing he can operate effectively both in a central midfield pairing and as an attacking midfielder. While the Rossoneri are monitoring the situation, their interest is currently described as exploratory rather than concrete.
Folorunsho's departure from Napoli seems increasingly likely, with multiple clubs vying for his signature. However, the final destination remains unclear, as Milan continue to weigh up their options and prioritize other transfer targets.
