Milan manager Tare leads Tomori renewal negotiations
Sporting director Igli Tare led the negotiations, identifying Tomori as a central pillar around which the club’s defensive future should be built.
Massimiliano Allegri are also keen to retain him, with the former Chelsea player seen as the ideal fit for the head coach’s system, intelligent, quick to recover and reliable at the back.

Further meetings are required to finalize bonus structures and contract clauses before an agreement can be formally signed. Widespread optimism on both sides, however, suggests that the question is when rather than if.
For a Milan side still struggling on several fronts, signing one of their most consistent players would represent a major deal completed well ahead of schedule.
