Another source has confirmed that Samuele Ricci is a potential option for Como in this final part of the summer mercato.
Speaking during a video on his YouTube channel, Fabrizio Romano provided an update about Ricci, who at the moment appears to be one of the players that the new head coach Ruben Amorim does not consider unsellable.

“At this moment we understand that Samuele Ricci has been offered to Como. Como is looking for Italian players, not just Kean in attack but also in other areas. Milan have a real list of surplus players that Bobby Gardiner, on behalf of Milan, is proposing to various clubs,” he said (via MilanNews).
“This applies to Nkunku, Santi Gimenez, and Estupiñán, but also to Ricci, who has been offered to Como. Como would consider Ricci on loan, while Milan wants a permanent transfer or one with an easy obligation to buy. Today, Milan does not accept the conditions put forward by Como.”
Alfredo Pedulla was the first to report earlier in the week that Ricci had been proposed to the Lariani, with Cesc Fabregas evaluating the possibility of adding the Italian. He is a homegrown player too, which is a big boost for the Champions League squad list regulation.




Tomori, Estupinan, Ricci, Leao and Gimenez, they all need to leave, especially PE, SR, RL and SG. Too bad YM and RLC won’t join them.
Strengthening the team that replaced in the champions league.
Makes sense.
Seems like nothing makes sense to you anymore these days. Maybe its a sign to give up and live a more peaceful existence.
More Italian players for the club you support.
Aren’t you happy ?
The Great Irony that is Maldini’s Heir… Sorry Como’s Heir… Who complained so much about Milan, the club he’s alleged to support, because there werent enough Italians and the coach and ownership weren’t Italian either akin to having Parma ham being made outside of Parma. Yet chose for his next club one with a foreign coach, owner and the team that barely had any Italians so much so they’re about to run foul of restrictions. Sad sad feul
Are you new? Go and watch another sport if you can’t handle the concept of transfers.
I like the lad but it’s reasonable – I think Comotto is ahead of him at this point. Modric, Jashari, Rabiot and Comotto with RLC capable of dropping back if required is plenty.
Ricci won’t play and for his own sake, he should leave.
If we sell Ricci, can someone tell me who will be the 8 locally trained players that we will include in the 25 man squad of Europa League
Torriani, Gabbia, Bartesaghi, Comotto, Camarda;
P. Terracciano, De Winter, F. Terracciano, A. Cisse;
Anyone born after 1.1.2005 doesn’t have to be on this list. 5 of them.
True but you can’t have more than 17 foreign players in that 25 squad which means we would lose a slot for each locally trained player less than what is required. In other words, the overall list would be reduced as a result of not complying with the UEFA rules and regulations which is a punishment of sort. We need to have 4+4, that’s why I have divided them in two groups. What we do and have beyond that is a bonus and an advantage, of course, that can not be limited.
No you can have 8 club trained and 0 association trained players. But not more then 4 association players out of those 8 since you need a minimum of 4 club trained players.
So 8-0, 7-1 etc down to 4-4. But not 3 (club) – 5 (association).
So Milan can have a 25 man squad list with 17 foreign players and 8 club trained ones if they want.
You may be right there and I actually think you are but I have read this:
UEFA Europa League List: The Rules
In Europe, the squad must consist of a maximum of 25 players (List A) , divided between 17 “foreign” (or untrained) players, 4 trained in Italy, and 4 trained at the club , plus an ever-editable List B made up of U21 players who, from the age of 15 onwards, have spent at least two consecutive seasons at the club.
For “trained” players, the specification is as follows:
– Players who, between the ages of 15 and 21, have played for AC Milan for three sporting seasons, or 36 months, whether continuous or not: trained in the club’s youth system.
– Players who, between the ages of 15 and 21, have played for a club belonging to the same federation for three sporting seasons, or 36 months, whether continuous or not: trained in the Italian youth system.
It’s a good time to get an update on the Serie A and UEFA squads,
with less than two weeks to go until the transfer window closes.
Let’s start by saying that young players like the new Diawara (born in 2006) are not and will not be a problem for registering the Serie A squad , given that all Under 23s – that is, for the 2026/27 season, players born on or after January 1, 2004 – can be used outside the list of 25.
Instead, we must pay attention to UEFA ‘s guidelines for the 25-man squad to participate in next year’s Europa League . For example, looking at the current rankings, Diawara would be out of the European competition. But let’s look at this in detail.

AC Milan squad list, latest updates
The futures of several players are also unclear: Leao, Gimenez, and Ricci are on their way out. The first two would each free up a spot on the list of 17 foreign players, while the midfielder would free up one on the list of players trained in Italy. Bondo and Filippo Terracciano , who we already consider out of the list, are also added to these.

A team of foreigners with no loyalty or love for the club, no association, no heart, no soul, no belonging, just a group of random imports looking to get paid, this is the modern day football club, sad times indeed, the saddest thing of all is that Internazionale were created to be a team of foreigners, but we have become our greatest enemy, truly shameful
And to think the fans were calling for his signing and to build the midfield around him. My goodness a total disappointment. He literally did nothing in 33+ matches last season.
Where have all the WC Italian midfielders gone? Italy used to have an endless supply!?!
