AC Milan set to sign Genoa midfielder

Former Genoa midfielder Juraj Kucka has reportedly completed a move to AC Milan.

Milan have been looking for a new midfielder and have been linked with a move for Sampdoria’s Roberto Soriano, who Sinisa Mihajlovic had reportedly requested.

However, despite being close to a move to Bursaspor, the Rossoneri have moved in to sign Kucka for a fee believed to be worth €3 million plus bonuses according to Tuttomercatoweb.com.

The Slovakian was in negotiations with the Turkish side, but the Diavolo quickly moved to sign Kucka and the Grifone were eager to accept the offer from the Rossoneri after Bursaspor only offered €2m.

The former Sparta Prague man has now left the Grifone after four seasons with the Ligurian side although the club are happy to have received a transfer fee as his contract was due to expire.

He was a key part of the Rossoblu’s sixth placed finish last season, making 34 appearances and scoring two goals for Genoa.
