On 13 August, after a meeting between Amorim, Cardinale and the transfer-market working group, AC Milan decided to leave five players out of the squad: Odogu, Nkunku, Gimenez, Fofana and Tomori. Seventeen days later, Sky Sport report that the latter will be brought back in, despite the Portuguese manager ruling out any U-turn on the issue at a press conference. That decision had also been taken for list-related reasons.
