"The final days of the 2026 January window are upon us, with AC Milan evaluating various opportunities. Taking a look back at last year, it's clear that a lot can happen towards the end. All month long, fans have been asking the management to sign a centre-back. Niclas Füllkrug was brought in early and thus solved the 'emergency' up front, but Milan have been very quiet since. Or rather, they had been very quiet up until Friday."
"Warren Bondo, who's currently on loan at Cremonese, had been linked with the club several times throughout the years before the move. However, the transfer came to life in the final hours of deadline day. In fact, Bondo's agent got a call late on deadline day and had to rush to Casa Milan for the deal to be completed. The interest was hinted at on January 2, but the actual negotiations started on deadline day and were wrapped up quickly."
AC Milan entered the final days of the 2026 January window evaluating multiple opportunities. Fans consistently demanded the signing of a centre-back throughout January. Niclas Füllkrug arrived early and resolved an offensive emergency. Milan remained quiet thereafter until Friday, when Jean-Philippe Mateta and other targets were linked. A review of the 2025 January activity shows major late movement. Santiago Gimenez's arrival was announced on February 3 after links from January 21. Kyle Walker and Joao Felix attracted reports weeks before official announcements that occurred after deadline day. Warren Bondo's transfer was finalised during the final hours, with his agent summoned late on deadline day.
