Colombo spent last season on loan at Lecce where he scored six goals across all competitions and netted the penalty in a win against Monza that ended up securing their position in the top flight for another season.

According to the Verona-based newspaper L’Arena (via PianetaMilan), Hellas Verona want to sign the 21-year-old because Marco Baroni – the coach who had him at Lecce – is pushing to reunite with the striker.

Colombo is apparently keen on the idea of joining the Gialloblu because he believes that his development could continue under Baroni.

However, the Rossoneri have declared the Primavera product non-transferable for the time being. That is because Stefano Pioli is looking to evaluate him in preseason and could include him in the rotations for next season.
