Kicker: PSG defender failed Milan medical check with Bayern move imminent

Paris Saint-Germain defender Nordi Mukiele reportedly failed a medical check with AC Milan in the past, and his move to Bayern Munich now looks likely to go ahead. 

According to a report from German magazine Kicker (via Fussball News), Mukiele had a medical at Milan which he did not pass, but they do not say when this happened and what sort of deal was supposedly in place.

Considering Mukiele is destined to leave PSG this month having featured very little in 2023/24, and Milan are in serious need of new defenders, it is plausible that the medical took place in January.

The move to Bayern is not quite in the bag for the former RB Leipzig defender as the two clubs are struggling to come to an agreement on the terms of the deal.

Bayern sports director Christoph Freund said to DAZN: “It is a fact that we are still in discussions with various players. In the winter it has to be right for all sides – that can still happen.”

The Bavarians have also been linked with a move for Newcastle United’s Kieran Trippier. Milan, meanwhile, are still trying to land on the right central defender to bolster the squad.
