Official: Milan confirm signing of Marco Sportiello on deal until 2027

AC Milan have officially announced the arrival of goalkeeper Marco Sportiello who has signed a four-year contract with the club.

Through a statement on the official website, Milan have confirmed that Sportiello has put pen to paper on a contract until June 2027, meaning he will become the new deputy to Mike Maignan between the posts.

Sportiello came through Atalanta’s youth sector and then played for Seregno (2010-11 season), Poggibonsi (2011-12) and Carpi (2012-13), before returning to Atalanta to make 88 appearances between 2013 and 2017.

In January 2017 he moved to Fiorentina, where he played 39 games, followed by a move to Frosinone for the 2018-19 season, where he featured 36 times.

Ahead of the 2019-20 season, he returned to Atalanta again and brought his appearances for his boyhood club up to 136, but he has decided to leave in search of a new adventure.

He will not go far though and will instead be moving just down the road to Milano. Sportiello has chosen the number 57 shirt.
