There are no concerns about Samuele Ricci’s transfer to AC Milan being completed, according to reports.
It was reported earlier in the week that Milan had accelerated again for Ricci and were on the verge of sealing a deal worth €22m plus €3m in bonuses with Torino. That news came after a period in which not much was reported about the Italian, with other targets linked.

Ricci to AC Milan: Almost done
Now, an update has come from Fabrizio Romano: “AC Milan have made progress in talks to sign Samuele Ricci with deal at final stages. The player has been also alerted for possible medical tests in the next days. Lorenzo Colombo, discussed with Torino as option in a separate deal.”
Matteo Moretto also spoke on Romano’s YouTube channel to offer further news on how the negotiations are progressing, and he confirmed that things are very close to completion.
“There is news regarding Ricci to Milan, I consider it an almost done deal, a 99.9% a done deal. There are agreements on everything, both with the player for a five-year contract, and with Torino, 25 million euros including bonuses,” he said (via MilanNews).
“It is true that Torino and Milan are also talking about other players who could be included in this operation in an unrelated way, including Lorenzo Colombo.
“In any case, Ricci’s transfer to Milan is almost completely concluded, I expect that in the next few days the clubs will move on to the contracts and close the deal 100%.”
Ricci played 32 Serie A games last season for Torino across all competitions, scoring one goal and adding two assists. He is a versatile profile for Massimiliano Allegri given he can play both as a regista (deep-lying playmaker) or as a box-to-box mezzala.
Hope.
He represents hope.
Go root for Como again fake fan
He and leoni ( if coming) . 2 player for italian NT
If we manage to get Jashari as well, our midfield will be very strong. Tare said that Max wants to use a 3 midfielders formation so it’s good to see that midfield is getting assembled.
Even Xhaka would be fine nurturing the countless young players in this unexperienced squad.
I’m hopeful this new midfield does come together but I think this forum really underrated what Reijnders brought to our midfield. I watched the MC/Juve game yesterday and his midfield play was very nice for someone learning a new system with new teammates. I hope whomever we bring in gets here early and has time to acclimate.
Ricci-Fofana-Modric-Jashari-Bondo-RLC would be an incredibly strong midfield with 3 really good substitutes for the 3 starters.
Tijani is gone, and as a Milan fan I never underrated his impact in the midfield or the team as a whole. He’s gone and we have to move on too, and find other players for the new system.
Ricci-Modric-Jashari or
Fofana-Ricci- Jashari if we play 4-3-3
22m + 3m difficult bonuses it’s good bargain for Milan. Cheaper than Tonali on his age.
I see why torino accept that 25m euro total deal, there is colombo as bonus. Good luck colombo in your new club
