Juventus manager Thiago Motta has identified Fikayo Tomori as a potential target for the upcoming January transfer window. The Italian club is considering the AC Milan defender as a key option to bolster their squad. However, no formal discussions have taken place between the two clubs, as AC Milan is only willing to part with Tomori if a significant offer is made.
Fikayo Tomori’s Profile

Known for his speed, agility, and strong tackling ability, Tomori has established himself as a reliable defender in Serie A. His playing style is characterised by his ability to read the game effectively and make crucial interceptions.
Thiago Motta’s Tenure at Juventus

His appointment was confirmed in June, with a contract extending until 2027. Since taking charge, Motta has been actively involved in shaping the team’s strategy and player acquisitions.
