The agent of Hellas Verona defender Filippo Terracciano has claimed that signing him would be like signing three or four players at once given his versatility.
Geoffrey Moncada said before the Cagliari game last night that more defenders are needed, and Terracciano is one of the names that has been increasingly linked over the past few days. The 20-year-old has been a starter at Verona for a season and a half now.
Andrea D’Amico – who is Terracciano’s agent – spoke on Radio Serie A about his client and certainly did a good job of pitching the fact that he can cover multiple different roles.
“With Filippo Terracciano you don’t sign one player, but you sign 3/4 of them because he plays left-back, right-back, against Juventus he even marked Vlahovic. He plays in midfield and, in the national team, also as an attacking winger,” he said (via MilanNews).
Calciomercato.com provided an update on Milan’s pursuit of the Italian, claiming that Terracciano has promised himself to the Rossoneri and that there was a meeting between D’Amico and the management in which personal terms were agreed over a contract until 2028.
A first direct contact with Verona is already expected in the next few hours and Milan will put on the table a €4-5m offer to beat the competition from Fiorentina and Juventus and hopefully to quickly close the negotiation.
Ok just sign him and hopefully he will replace florenzi in the squad
Nothing wrong with Florenzi, still an excellent utility player.
he’s old, injury prone & overpaid as backup
Florenzi is Player with cuore ❤️
He’s versatile and great with both feet… which is rare for a player. I Would say sign him. The risk is low and he’s a young Italian talent which everyone demands lol
Based on his YouTube highlights he definitely looks versatile.
Reminds me of a young Kakha Kaladze. Kakha played LB, CB and DM early in his Milan career.
IMO he is too big to play as a full back. Faster, shifter wings will cause him a lot of problems. I’d like to see him either as a DM or CB. He has a very good passing range.
Everyone is thinking he is a really good option. To me after seeing some of his highlights, he isn’t good or great at any of those positions. I think he is a decent crosser of the ball and he is physical in his game. Those are characteristics Milan doesn’t have plenty of in their full backs but his passing is below average and I doubt he will be able to maintain the performance levels that the current starting players offer. So I am on the bench on this player coming over and if he does I am sceptical
Funny, most players are world class based on Youtube highlights or at least what people make of them. But many turn out to be bust. So I wouldn’t take that for granted. Although I don’t really like Moncada, I believe there’s more to his work than watching Youtube videos of players.
He’s still 20, give him a break. Where can we get versatile italian CB,RB,LB,DM,RMF,LMF,AM for cheap price 😀
As far as he is good and also versatile in different positions let the Milan hierarchy go for him because he will be a plus to the team.
