The name of English defender Joe Gomez has resurfaced in the transfer market, after the site "Fichajes" confirmed that the Italian club Milan has placed him at the top of its priorities during the upcoming winter transfer window, as the player has become outside the plans of coach Arne Slot at Liverpool, having participated in only 29 minutes across two Premier League matches this season.

Liverpool had halted Gomez's transfer to Milan last summer due to the absence of a suitable replacement, but the situation has not changed, and the patience of the 27-year-old player is wearing thin, as the England international is seeking an environment that provides him with a key role, which he may find in Serie A to revive his career.

According to the source, Milan is looking to strengthen its defense with experienced names, especially with Massimiliano Allegri relying on a three-man backline, and with limited options available, Gomez is considered an ideal choice for the Italian team.

Liverpool's management confirms that they will not easily part with the player, but they may open the door for the deal if a convincing offer comes in, especially since coach Arne Slot is considering strengthening the defense in January, and if the deal goes through, Gomez will be one of the most notable transfers of the upcoming winter in Europe.
