Agent of Penarol striker confirms talks with Italian clubs amid photo of him at Casa Milan

The agent of Penarol striker Agustin Alvarez has hinted that he spoke with AC Milan about a potential move to Italy in the future for his client.

It was reported by Daniele Longo on Twitter that a meeting in Milan between the management and Alvarez’s agent Edgardo Lasalvia was scheduled for December and then it was confirmed that it took place last month.

Lasalvia works for Equipo Talent Management Associates and represents some intriguing profiles, but it seems Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are very much forward-thinking. He looks after the interests of Alvarez of Penarol – who has 23 goals in 38 games this season – but also Benfica’s 22-year-old centre-forward Darwin Nunez.

Now, Lasalvia has spoken to SerieANews about what is happening with his client and he confirmed that he has already spoken with some Italian clubs.

“Agustín is on the radar of the largest clubs in Europe. He is the top goalscorer of the Copa Sudamericana and was born in 2001 with a big future. I can say that I have already spoken to some Italian clubs, I have met several of them and they have Álvarez’s name there on the table,” he said (via MilanLive).
