As La Gazzetta dello Sport report (via MilanNews), the young Norwegian landed in Italy yesterday and today – after having undergone medical examinations – he will go to Casa Milan to sign a five-year contract.
Unfortunately for head coach Stefano Pioli, Hauge will not be able to board the plane to Portugal this afternoon in view of tomorrow’s Europa League Play-Off against Rio Ave, but it won’t be long before fans see him on the pitch. In fact, the 20-year-old striker will be called up for Sunday’s Serie A game against Spezia at San Siro.
Pioli will thus have a new arrow available for his attacking trident, as Hauge is ideal for the 4-2-3-1. He can play on both flanks and possibly also as a playmaker behind the striker.
A few days ago there were rumours regarding the possibility of leaving him at Bodo/Glimt until December, but now it seems he is destined to stay in Milan right away, and Sunday could mark his debut.
