Mateta medical complications put Milan move in doubt as Jacquet and Disasi face tests
Jean-Philippe Mateta’s proposed move to AC Milan is in doubt after complications during his medical on Sunday, with Milan’s doctor due to carry out further assessment in Paris this morning, the Guardian reports. Jérémy Jacquet is expected to have a Liverpool medical today and Axel Disasi is heading to West Ham to undergo a medical before joining on loan from Chelsea.
Liverpool’s deal for Jacquet is reported as £60m (£55m plus £5m in add‑ons). The 20‑year‑old Rennes defender is due to have his medical this morning, after which he will return to Rennes and join Liverpool in the summer. The Guardian says Jacquet is expected to be the only incoming at Anfield today, and that Liverpool had tried to sign Lutsharel Geertruida on loan but that move is off.
West Ham and Chelsea are in talks over Axel Disasi, with the transfer described as heading in the right direction but it remains to be seen whether the player will choose the London Stadium; he is set to undergo a medical before a loan move. Crystal Palace’s planned business continues too, with Jørgen Strand Larsen expected to join from Wolves in a deal worth up to £48m while Palace remain unconcerned by Mateta’s uncertain move.
Everton are expected to sign Chelsea forward Tyrique George on loan with an option to buy, and the 19‑year‑old is due to undergo a medical at Everton today after limited first‑team appearances this season.
