Flamengo starlet Lucas Paqueta will land with AC Milan in December, giving him a month to settle in with his new club before his move is made official.
The 21-year-old will join the Rossoneri for €35 million plus bonuses after the Brazilian club confirmed a deal has been finalized despite a late bid from Real Madrid.
While the move will be made official once the transfer window opens on January 3, Sky Sport Italia reports Paqueta will land in Italy before that.
The midfielder will play his final match for Flamengo against Atletico Paranaense on December 2, and it appears he will arrive in Milan after the completion of the contest.
That will give him a month to settle in Italy and get to grips with life under coach Gennaro Gattuso.
Paqueta has netted 17 goals in 88 matches for Flamengo since making his first-team debut back in 2016.
