AC Milan offers player swap deal to Barcelona ahead of new season

Ahead of the 2025-2026 season, AC Milan has proposed a player swap deal to Barcelona that could potentially impact Nico Williams’ planned transfer to the Catalan club.

Both clubs are looking to strengthen their squads with different needs — Milan requires a new defender following Pierre Kalulu’s departure to Juventus, while Barcelona seeks a new winger.

This swap proposal emerges amid reports of Barcelona pursuing Williams from Athletic Bilbao. Rossoneri believes this exchange deal could benefit both parties in the upcoming summer transfer window.
