CM: Milan reach agreement with Colombo over two-year contract extension

AC Mllan have reached an agreement with Lorenzo Colombo over the extension of his contract and it could precede a loan deal, a report claims.

According to what is being reported by Calciomercato.com (via SempreMilan.it), the Milan management have reached an agreement with Colombo for a two-year extension of his current contract expiring in 2025.

The former Lecce and SPAL loanee will therefore extend his deal until 2027 with the Rossoneri, but also may not remain in Stefano Pioli’s squad for the remainder of the campaign.

The idea of a loan spell to get the 21-year-old more consistent playing time has never gone away, with Cagliari, Genoa and Monza all wanting to sign him and willing to do so via a formula that will satisfy Milan.

However, Milan will have to find a replacement for the Italian centre-forward in the final days of the transfer window before they consider sanctioning a loan deal.

  1. If he goes on loan this year I hope to see him next year stronger and ready for a spot it our squad. It’s good to have some good and talented players from our Primavera in our first team.

  2. Colombo will be useful to comply UCL’s regulation for Home-Grown Players. We have : Lapo Nava, Calabria, Pobega, & Colombo.

    Bartesaghi, Zeroli, & Simic aren’t as ready as Colombo. Colombo deserves to earn his place at first team too with his decent performance at Friendly.

  3. we have Origi on the books, had CDK, plus Colombo, but we are waiting until the last week to loan him and get a replacement?

    This is odd lol

    1. Timing is not great for sure, but it’s been tough given they missed out on Thuram right at the open, couldn’t get close to Balogun, have been linked but unable/unwilling to closed on Taremi, etc. Feels like this position has been the one they have really wanted to address (beyond Okafor) since the start of the mercato but have had an issue with.

      1. I agree. Giving CDK a look there wouldn’t have been terrible either. He has a history of scoring goals. We got 3 million for him, if he does well, we lose a player that could have shored up that position that was motivated and ready to finally make good, for what exactly? To loan our backup, not prepare Origi for the season in the even we can’t sell him and not keep Colombo? This is perplexing to say the least.

        Okafor can maybe help out so we will wait and see.

    1. That better be the case, too late to let him walk for now. We prepared the team with him in it, it would not be a good idea to let him go. We can give him some starts in Coppa and against bottom 7 teams. A nice 14 starts and garantee his minutes, man management, training. Let Okafor get backup for Giroud and him until he gets healthy again
