Arsenal and Brighton Interested in Milan's Young Star Cisse

Interest from Premier League clubs in Milan forward Alphadjo Cisse is growing. According to Tuttomercatoweb, Arsenal are closely monitoring the player after Brighton and Hove Albion. Several other Premier League clubs are also reported to be focusing on the young talent, who is valued at 60 million euros.

Cisse celebrated his 20th birthday this week. He has scored five goals in nine Serie A matches and three goals in four Europa League games. For the first time in his career, he was called up to the Italy national team for the Nations League.

Fabrizio Romano's Italian YouTube channel reported earlier this week that Brighton had made a verbal offer for the player. Milan, however, firmly rejected the bid.

The player's value has risen quickly. Cisse, who came through the Hellas Verona youth system, was sold to Milan in February 2026 for 8.4 million euros. Last season, he was loaned to Serie B club Catanzaro to aid his development.
