CorSera: Milan seal signing of Real Madrid midfielder as Theo Hernandez plays key role

AC Milan will welcome the signing of Real Madrid playmaker Brahim Diaz in the coming week, according to a report.

Gianluca Di Marzio, Fabrizio Romano, Pietro Balzano Prota and Vito Angele are all reporting that Sandro Tonali to Milan is a done deal. Milan have managed to secure the midfielder on a paid loan with an option to buy.

It seemed as though the Rossoneri management – spearheaded by technical director Paolo Maldini – wanted to move quickly and concretely to beat the competition from Inter and secure a vital piece for the future.

According to il Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews), after the renewal of Ibrahimovic and the purchase of Tonali from Brescia, Milan are ready to close another signing in the coming days.

Brahim Diaz will also land on a dry loan from the week, from Real Madrid. Phone calls from Theo Hernandez – his former team-mate with Los Blancos – were very important to convince the young Spanish attacking midfielder.
