The negotiations between AC Milan and AS Roma involving Tammy Abraham and Alexis Saelemaekers have finally reached a positive conclusion, a report claims.
The possibility of an exchange deal between Abraham and Saelemaekers only emerged a couple of days ago, but things seemed to move quickly and it was expected that they would be permanent deals.
However, as of late last night the situation had stalled as per multiple sources, and with around 24 hours at that point to try and unblock the stalemate it appeared as though the deal might fall by the wayside.
Nonetheless, Fabrizio Romano has tweeted the following: ‘Tammy Abraham to AC Milan, Alexis Saelemaekers to AS Roma… here we go!’ Instead of being permanent moves, though, both players will head in opposite directions on loan.
There is therefore the possibility to negotiate throughout the season to perhaps reach an agreement in view of next summer, but given the tight deadline and the desire of both players to complete the switch, this was a way to fast-track things.
According to MilanNews, the English striker will arrive in the city this morning to undergo the usual medical checks at the La Madonnina clinic , before heading to the Ambrosiano centre to do his sports fitness test and then sign his contract at Casa Milan.
