Divock Origi and Fode Ballo-Toure are set to return to Milan following underwhelming spells in the Premier League, prompting the club to consider terminating their contracts.

Origi, the Belgian striker, spent the 2023-24 season on loan at Nottingham Forest where he struggled to make an impact, scoring just one goal and providing one assist in 22 matches, featuring as a starter in only six league games. Despite arriving with promise from Liverpool, he failed to impress during his time with Milan.

Ballo-Toure’s situation was similarly disappointing as he joined Fulham on loan but saw minimal playing time, totaling just 230 minutes across eight matches, with only two appearances in 2024 and being sidelined for much of the latter part of the season.

According to a report in Tuttosport, Milan has decided not to retain Origi and Ballo-Toure, informing their agents to explore transfer options this summer. Should the players remain unsold, Milan is prepared to terminate their contracts to alleviate salary burdens, potentially allowing them to depart as free agents.
