Attributed to original sourceWhile Milan continue to be linked with moves for a series of Portugal internationals and players represented by super agent Jorge Mendes, the latest reports in Italy claim that Manchester United’s Mason Mount has been proposed to the Rossoneri.
Could Mount join Ramos in Milan in 2026-27? Milan are now under the leadership of former United head coach Ruben Amorim after parting company with Massimiliano Allegri the day after the 2025-26 season ended.
The club also let go of sporting director Igli Tare, technical director Geoffrey Moncada and CEO Giorgio Furlani in one fell swoop after missing out on Champions League qualification at the end of the Serie A campaign, but have since appointed a new leadership team revolving around Amorim, director of player trading Hendrik Almstadt and director of football intelligence Bobby Gardiner in a new senior management structure in San Siro.
Since these appointments were confirmed at the beginning of the week , Milan’s transfer window has well and truly sprung into life and a club-record deal for PSG striker Goncalo Ramos has already been secured.

However, according to reports from Milanpress.it , a new transfer option has recently emerged for Milan in the form of attacking midfielder Mount.
Mount is, of course, well known to Amorim from their time together at Manchester United, and Sunday’s report suggests that the player does not feel part of the project under Michael Carrick at Old Trafford and could be heading for an exit this summer.

Milanpress claims that Mount is valued at around €25m.

What happened
AC Milan, who have been active in the Portuguese transfer market, have been offered the opportunity to sign Mason Mount from Manchester United. The English midfielder joined United from Chelsea in 2023 for around £55 million but has failed to establish himself as a regular starter under Ruben Amorim. Mount's high wages and injury record remain potential obstacles to a deal, but Milan's interest signals another potential Premier League departure as they look to strengthen their attacking midfield options.
Chance analysis
Mount's underwhelming tenure at Manchester United makes him a plausible candidate for departure, but his salary (reportedly around £250,000/week) and inconsistent fitness record limit his market. For Milan, adding a Premier League-proven midfielder on a potential loan or discounted deal could be attractive, though the financial structure would be complex. This remains early-stage speculation with no indication of concrete negotiations yet.
If Mount departs, Manchester United lose squad depth in midfield; Milan would gain a creative option but face wage structure challenges.
Track whether this develops into a formal offer, as Mount's availability could affect both United's squad planning and Milan's midfield options for upcoming matches.
