AC Milan Signs Koni De Winter as Malick Thiaw’s Replacement

AC Milan has officially secured Belgian defender Koni De Winter to strengthen their defense following the departure of Malick Thiaw to Newcastle United. The transfer from Genoa was completed swiftly as Milan sought to fill the gap left by one of their key defenders ahead of the new season. De Winter’s signing reflects the club’s determination to maintain stability at the back under coach Massimiliano Allegri’s plans.
Initially, Milan did not plan to sell Thiaw, as he was considered a crucial part of their long-term strategy. However, a tempting offer from the Premier League changed the situation, prompting the club to act quickly and open negotiations for De Winter. The talks with both the player and Genoa progressed smoothly, allowing the transfer to be finalized in a short time.
De Winter has signed a long-term contract with AC Milan that runs until 2030, signaling the club’s confidence in his potential to be a key figure in their defense for years to come. Alongside the contract announcement, Milan revealed that he will wear the number 5 jersey, marking his official identity on the pitch.
Although the transfer fee was not disclosed, the club’s prompt action to secure De Winter highlights their urgency to fill the void left by Thiaw’s exit. This move underscores Milan’s ambition to remain competitive in both domestic and European competitions while continuing to build a solid defensive line.
