AC Milan could move for Serge Aurier in January window

Serge Aurier has been linked with a January exit, with AC Milan interested in the player, according to Calciomercato (h/t Football.london).

The Ivorian has been poor this season and gave away the penalty which saw us lose to Liverpool at the weekend.

Tottenham were battered in that game but things could have been different had we gone 2-0 up in the second half.

Son Heung-min hit the crossbar after rounding Alisson and Liverpool equalised through Jordan Henderson. Aurier then fouled Sadio Mane in the box, with Mohamed Salah scoring the penalty to hand Liverpool the three points.

Milan wanted Aurier in the summer

The 26-year-old right-back has failed to nail down a starting spot in the team since joining from Paris Saint-Germain.

Spurs have Kyle Walker-Peters and Juan Foyth who can play at right-back, and the report claims that Milan wanted Aurier at the start of the season.

The report adds that Milan’s lack of options in the position could see them return for Aurier, but the move is difficult. Tottenham would have to move for a backup in the winter window should they lose the Ivorian.

We made a mistake by not replacing Kieran Trippier, and the Englishman has done a decent job at new club Atletico Madrid. Walker-Peters should have been a regular for us, however, the English youngster has spent a lot of time on the treatment table.

Foyth started his Spurs career as a centre-back, and it will be interesting to see if he is played at right-back going forward.
