Pedulla: Como in talks with expiring Milan captain as January move is possible | OneFootball

Davide Calabria’s contract will expire at the end of the season and it doesn’t look like he will renew. As such, AC Milan could part ways with their captain in January and Como have reportedly opened talks.

Since the signing of Emerson Royal, Calabria has struggled to get consistent playing time and injury struggles have also played a part in this. There is little doubt, however, that Paulo Fonseca prefers the Brazilian over the captain of the team.

Calabria’s contract will expire in the summer and it has been known for quite some time that it won’t be renewed. As a result, a move in January appears to be a concrete option and according to Alfredo Pedulla, the newly-promoted Como have opened talks with the player.

There could be more developments in the coming days, as per the journalist, and Como appear keen to reinforce their squad already in January. Seeing as Calabria came through the youth ranks at Milan and hasn’t exactly been in the best of form, the price tag likely won’t be high.

In the meantime, though, Calabria is preparing for the Supercoppa Italiana with Milan and this could be his last chance to lift a trophy with the club. It should be noted that he didn’t get to lift the Scudetto in 2021-22, as Alessio Romagnoli was still the captain then.
