AC Milan are set to bolster their defense with another central defender this summer. The club has been linked to several options, including Goncalo Inacio and John Stones. Inacio is reportedly the preferred choice, but his price tag of €40-50m may be a hurdle. Milan may also consider free agents, with Stones being offered by intermediaries.

The Rossoneri have already made significant signings this summer, including a €75 million deal for Goncalo Ramos and a €30m move for Mario Gila. Club owner Gerry Cardinale has expressed his desire to win and is leading the club forward with sporting director Ruben Amorim. Amorim wants another central defender for next season, and the costs are not expected to be major.

John Stones, who is currently playing in the World Cup, could be a smart option for Milan, but his wages may make a deal difficult unless they are renegotiated. Inacio, on the other hand, remains the favorite, but his price may be a challenge for the club.

Milan are looking to strengthen their defense, and with Inacio and Stones in sight, the club has some compelling options to consider.
