AC Milan have made an enquiry about Nottingham Forest attacking midfielder Omari Hutchinson as they consider adding to their attacking options before the summer transfer window closes, according to Sky Sports.
The Italian club has contacted Nottingham Forest to ask about the possibility of signing the 22-year-old, who has become a target for Milan’s recruitment team. No agreement has been reported between the two clubs, and the enquiry represents the early stage of the process.
Milan are seeking to strengthen their forward line before the end of the transfer window and have identified Hutchinson as one of the players who could provide additional attacking quality. The England-born player is capable of operating in an advanced midfield role and has also been described as a winger.
Hutchinson has been with Nottingham Forest since August last year. His current contract with the club runs until the end of June 2030, meaning Forest are under no immediate pressure to sell and hold the player’s registration for several more seasons.
That long-term commitment is likely to be an important factor in any potential negotiations. Milan’s initial contact was made to establish the conditions for a transfer, while the available information does not indicate that a formal offer has been submitted.
Transfermarkt values Hutchinson’s market worth at €30m. That figure provides an indication of his current valuation, although the eventual cost of a deal would depend on the terms agreed between Milan and Nottingham Forest.
The approach comes as Milan continue their efforts to reinforce their attacking department during the summer window. Hutchinson’s age, his contract length and his position among Nottingham Forest’s attacking players are all relevant to the Italian club’s interest.
For now, the situation remains at the enquiry stage. Nottingham Forest have yet to agree to a transfer, while Milan must decide whether to progress from an initial request to a formal proposal before the window closes.
