Fikayo Tomori faced embarrassment during AC Milan’s Serie A clash against Salernitana as his goal celebration took an unexpected turn. After scoring in the 17th minute to give Milan the lead, Tomori attempted a knee slide in celebration, but the pitch at Stadio Arechi had other plans.

The defender got stuck, leading to a comical tumble forward, leaving fans amused and quick to share the mishap online. Tomori’s third goal in Serie A this season turned into a memorable moment for the wrong reasons. Fans playfully suggested that the failed knee slide might affect his transfer prospects, with Newcastle and other Premier League clubs rumored to be interested.

Despite the amusing celebration, Tomori faced further disappointment as Salernitana equalized just before halftime and took the lead in the second half. Additionally, Tomori had to leave the pitch with a muscle injury, adding a twist to an eventful night. Milan salvaged a 2-2 draw with a late equalizer from Luca Jovic.

Here is the highlight video of Salernitana vs. AC Milan, which ended with a 2-2 draw.
