AC Milan, thanks to the scouting department, are keeping eyes on many talents, either in Italy or even outside Europe. The newest target to come into the club's plans for the transfer market is currently in the Serie C.
The player in question is Tommaso Berti. He plays for Cesena who are first in the standings in group B of Serie C.
Berti is 17 years old but has already been playing with the fiirst team as he appeared in 9 games so far between league matches and Coppa Serie C. He has one assist to his name as of now. The talented teenager operates as a defensive midfield. He may not have a very dominant physical structure. However, he manages to dictate the timing of the action with the right quality and tempo, writes Calciomercato.com.
In fact, AC Milan were already interested in Berti last summer and even offered to sign him from Cesena on loan for a fee of 150 thousand euros plus a buy-option set at 450 thousand euros, as part of the operation that sent Riccardo Tonin to Cesena.
The source continues to write that the Cesena board is convinced that Berti will become a great player in the future and decided to reject Milan's offer in the summer as they wanted to keep him for this season. Now, Sassuolo have been interested in him for some weeks now. However, Frederic Massara, who is the sporting director of the Rossoneri club, will not give up on this jewel. In the coming months, he will try again to sign him.
