The Milan revamp continues under Max Allegri, as while Tijjani Reijnders and Kyle Walker are heading to Manchester City, a deal is almost done for Torino midfielder Samuele Ricci at €30m.
The arrival of the new coach and director of sport Igli Tare means a complete change of direction from the failed campaign that saw them fail to qualify for Europe.
It is no secret that they are in advanced negotiations to sell Reijnders to Manchester City, although the club is holding out for €75m including add-ons.
Walker’s fate was also known for a while, as Milan will not make his loan move permanent after six months at San Siro.
Instead, the Rossoneri are reinvesting in a very different type of midfielder, with transfer pundits Matteo Moretto and Fabrizio Romano confident a deal is very close with Torino for Ricci.
He had been approached several times before over the last couple of years without success, but this seems to finally be the moment he makes the move.
MilanPress believe the final figures will be €25m plus somewhere between €5-7m in easy to achieve bonuses and add-ons.
The player has already agreed personal terms, prepared to sign a five-year contract worth circa €3m per season.
