[2] Gustavo Gomez's Lanus conceded a mere 10 goals in 17 games en route to securing 2016 Argentine Primera Division title.

On 5 August 2016, Gómez completed a move to AC Milan for a fee reported to be in the region of €8.5 million, signing a 5-year contract.

After joining the club he chose number 15, in tribute of his former Lanús teammate, Diego Barisone who died in a car accident.

Gustavo is a strong defender capable of playing in any position at the back, being a hard tackler and good in the air.
