It’s reported Como have agreed to take Milan midfielder Samuele Ricci on loan with an option to buy, but it cannot be completed until space is made with a sale.
There had been suggestions all summer that Ricci was not part of new coach Ruben Amorim’s plans, and his playing time with the Rossoneri has been irregular since the €23m plus add-ons move from Torino last summer.
He made 34 competitive appearances, scoring one goal with four assists, but only 14 of those were in the starting XI.
Ricci all set for Como
According to Sky Sport Italia, Como and Milan have now shaken hands on an agreement to hand Ricci over on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season.
However, Como can only commit to make the transfer once they have sold one of their current midfielders to make room.
Atalanta and Maurizio Sarri had also been interested in potentially signing the Italy international, but never really progressed in the negotiations.
The player turns 25 on Friday and has 11 senior caps for Italy.
