Tuttosport: Two Serie A sides showing serious interest in Milan striker

Serie A sides Torino and Atalanta have shown serious interest in securing a loan deal for AC Milan striker Lorenzo Colombo, a report claims.

As has been reported by Tuttosport (via Milan News), there is lots of interest in Serie A in regard to what Milan will choose to do with the Italian striker.

He spent last season on loan at Lecce where he impressed. Lecce actually exercised their option to buy him at the end of the loan deal but Milan then exercised their own buy-back option to bring him back to the club.

Given the lack of depth in that area, it is not yet clear whether Stefano Pioli wants to keep Colombo at the club or loan him out once again. Olivier Giroud has been joined by Swiss forward Noah Okafor, but another striker may be needed.

The decision is likely to rest on whether there is any budget to bring in a striker.

    1. How can you offload rebic and origi if they keep rejecting club that enquired them. Sadly I believe we stuck with rebic and origi, while colombo will be loaned to another serie a club

  1. El Hilali is already better. Colombo is slow and lacking technically. He’ll do a job at a team like Bologna or Torino, but he doesn’t have a long-term future at Milan.

  2. Since Noah Okafor can play more than a single role, Milan should keep and monitor Colombo on their own as any game Milan is leading with two goals up he can be introduced initially to allow him to grow with ease and it doesn’t matter who start as a striker between Giroud and the aforementioned utility striker.Colombo showed a lot of promise during the preseason friendly with Real Madrid,I believe AC Milan is covered in the pointman area for now and if there’s any problems interventions can come during the January mercato.
