Udinese target AC Milan midfielder Warren Bondo

Udinese are looking at a loan move for Warren Bondo, with AC Milan weighing up whether to let the midfielder gain more minutes elsewhere.

The Serie A side are also considering an option to buy, which could become mandatory if certain conditions are met.

Bondo’s rise has been steady and unusually early. He signed his first professional contract with AS Nancy in August 2019 at just 15, becoming the youngest player in the club’s history to do so. That deal moved him from youth football into the senior setup, where he continued developing with the reserves while training around the first team.

His debut in Ligue 2 came on November 24, 2020 against Grenoble Foot 38, when he entered late in a 1-0 defeat and was then sent off shortly after. He quickly bounced back, though, making 13 league appearances that season and scoring his first professional goal in a 3-3 draw with FC Chambly Oise.

Bondo later joined Milan from Monza in January 2025 for €10.5 million and spent last season on loan at Cremonese, where he played 28 matches. Udinese now see him as a useful option for the next step in his career.
