“Milan evaluates the signing of Mason Mount after the arrival of Ruben Amorim.”

A twist in the transfer market has caught everyone by surprise: Mason Mount, star of Manchester United, has been offered to AC Milan at a time when the San Siro club is already preparing for a busy summer, with high-profile Portuguese names at the top of their priority list. This potential move could shake not only the Italian emblem but also European football itself, in a context where Mount, a former pupil of Rúben Amorim, no longer feels integrated into Michael Carrick’s plans at Old Trafford.

AC Milan, now under the management of Rúben Amorim – former coach of Manchester United – is undergoing a genuine internal revolution following a disappointing season that culminated in their absence from the Champions League. The Milanese club parted ways with Massimiliano Allegri at the end of the 2025/26 season and, in one fell swoop, dismissed sporting director Igli Tare, technical director Geoffrey Moncada, and CEO Giorgio Furlani, in a true locker room cleanout. To fill the void, Hendrik Almstadt was appointed as the director of transfer operations and Bobby Gardiner joined the football intelligence department, forming a new top structure at San Siro.

Since the beginning of this week, with the new leadership consolidated, the rossoneri have moved full speed ahead in the transfer market: the club has already secured a record signing of forward Gonçalo Ramos from Paris Saint-Germain, one of the key players in the 2026 Champions League final for the Parisians. But the movements do not stop there: according to information released this Sunday, Milan has already reached a preliminary agreement with António Silva, a central defender from Benfica, who is also represented by Jorge Mendes, just like Ramos. These Portuguese reinforcements underscore Milan’s clear commitment to Portuguese talent, with Jorge Mendes playing a central role in the dealings.

However, the real shock came with the news that Mason Mount has been suggested as a new option to strengthen AC Milan’s attacking midfield. According to the portal Milanpress.it, Amorim knows Mount well from their time together at Manchester United, and their mutual experience could be crucial in convincing the England international. The same report emphasizes that Mount “does not feel part of Michael Carrick’s project at Old Trafford,” a sentiment that could hasten his departure this summer. This dissatisfaction was reported at the end of last week and is now gaining traction with Milan’s expressed interest.

The impact of this potential transfer is enormous both for Milan, which is seeking to return to the European elite, and for Mount, who sees this opportunity as a chance to relaunch his career alongside a coach who knows him well. For the Italian club, securing Mount would be a significant boost to a squad that is already showing signs of deep renewal – with the arrival of Gonçalo Ramos and potentially António Silva, the Rossoneri are positioning themselves as candidates to surprise everyone in the upcoming Serie A season.

Mount himself has reportedly expressed to close associates his desire to seek new challenges outside of England, according to internal sources at the club. “Mason needs to feel important and to play in a project that clearly invests in him. In Milan, with Amorim, he would have that guaranteed,” a source close to the player revealed in an exclusive comment after the news broke.

The departure of Mount could also trigger a chain reaction at Manchester United, pressuring the club to seek alternatives for the midfield. For Milan, the realization of this deal would be more than just a simple reinforcement: it would be a clear signal of ambition and a bet on a profile of a creative and experienced player, capable of substantially elevating the quality of the attack.

In the coming weeks, all eyes will be on San Siro and Old Trafford. Milan is preparing to make a strong push in the market, with Jorge Mendes as the maestro of negotiations, while Mount awaits the developments of the contacts to understand if he will indeed wear the rossoneri jersey. One thing is certain: this summer promises to be sizzling, and no one will want to miss the next chapter of this behind-the-scenes saga.
