Youssouf Fofana of AC Milan
Youssouf Fofana is out in Perth with the AC Milan squad, though it seems that he may soon have the chance to board a plan to England.
As Calciomercato.com report, Ruben Amorim expected improvements from the team against Inter and there were some in the 1-1 draw in Perth. Fofana was given a start and the midfielder hopes to convince the new coach that he deserves to stay.

However, the stance of Amorim and of the club at the moment is that the former Monaco player is not unsellable. In other words, if a suitor comes along and offers the right price, then Fofana could well be on his way out.
Milan ‘have put Fofana on the market’ and are asking around €20m to sell. It is a decision that has been understood and accepted by his agent. Crystal Palace and Everton have made enquiries so far, but the player seems inclined to stay with the Rossoneri to play for his chances.
The same source reported on July 30 that Amorim had conducted a lengthy meeting with Fofana to discuss his future. The manager clearly has no plans to exclude Fofana, but he appears an increasingly obvious sale candidate to help raise funds, especially if Rafael Leao now remains.
