The full picture
Manchester United are reportedly considering signing AC Milan defender Fikayo Tomori in January, according to a report by TEAMtalk cited by The Peoples Person. United have struggled with defensive issues this season, conceding 19 goals in 10 games. Tomori is not central to AC Milan's plans and is in the final 12 months of his contract. Several Premier League clubs, including Chelsea, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United, are also interested in signing him.
Tomori's limited game time at AC Milan this season, with only four appearances, may make him more likely to leave. Both Tomori and his teammate Ruben Loftus-Cheek are understood to be keen on returning to the Premier League. Intermediaries are working to determine which clubs are ready to make a move when the January transfer window opens.
Tomori has Premier League experience, having played for Chelsea, Brighton & Hove Albion, Hull City, and Derby County. His contract situation could make him a more affordable option for Manchester United. However, the club must assess whether he would be an upgrade on their current defensive options.

Source context
Manchester United have struggled to keep out goals this season, managing just one clean sheet in 11 games across all competitions. That came in the 4-0 win against Sabah in the Champions League in September, and the Red Devils have conceded 19 goals in the other 10 games. While the English giants’ inability to score goals has been a problem, their backline may need an immediate fix if they are to salvage the season. Michael Carrick is already under immense pressure after a disappointing start to the new campaign, during which they have picked up just two wins. One of those wins has come in seven games in the Premier League, where they have drawn four and lost two more.
