#3 Fikayo Tomori - €45 million
Fikayo Tomori has had a solid stint with AC Milan since arriving from Chelsea on loan last January.
The Englishman impressed enough for Milan to make his move permanent in the summer. The 24-year-old centre-back has looked solid in his nearly 50 appearances across competitions for the Rossoneri, and has also scored twice.
Tomori's lone strike this season came in the Champions League, where Milan finished a dismal fourth in their group. Nevertheless, he will look to continue his good form at both ends as Stefano Pioli's side seek their first league title in 11 years.
#2 Theo Hernandez - €48 million
Theo Hernandez has been a revelation for AC Milan since his arrival from Real Madrid in the summer of 2019.
Widely regarded as one of the best active left-backs in the game, the 24-year-old Frenchman has made over 100 appearances across competitions for the Rossoneri.
During this period, he has contributed an impressive 19 goals and 20 assists. He is already up to four goals and seven assists for the season, with all but two of those goal contributions coming in the league.
Hernandez has been the subject of interest from many top clubs across Europe. However, Milan recently extended his contract till 2026, and also tripled his wages to fend off potential suitors.
#1 Franck Kessie - €48 million
Franck Kessie has been a revelation at AC Milan since his arrival on loan from Atalanta in the summer of 2017.
The Cote d'Ivoire international has grown by leaps and bounds in the red and black half of Milan. The Rossoneri made the 25-year-old's move permanent two years later.
Kessie has made over 200 appearances for the club, scoring 35 times and laying out 16 assists. Most of the midfielder's strikes have come from the penalty spot. This season, Kessie has contributed five goals and an assist across competitions.
He will run out of contract this summer, but hasn't yet signed an extension with AC Milan yet due to disagreement over wages.
As per recent reports, Real Madrid appear to be the frontrunners to secure his services at the end of the season. Barcelona and Tottenham Hotspur are also in the fray for the versatile player.
