AC Milan's 31-year-old experienced Italian full-back Alessandro Florenzi had a season full with setbacks in terms of injuries. He had two operations this season on his knee. However, that did not stop him from being a very reliable and useful option for Stefano Pioli.
The AS Roma loanee was first deployed as a right-winger at times. But, when he was moved back to the full-back position, he had many convincing performances. He even scored 2 goals. The latest one was against Hellas Verona while the other was a well-executed free-kick against Empoli.
The positive performances of Alessandro Florenzi have earned the trust of the club managers and the coach which explains why Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara would be keen to keep him on a permanent move in the summer.
As per Milannews.it's journalist Antonio Vitiello on his YouTube channel, it seems that we are moving towards the activation of the buy-option of the defender. The figure is set around 4.5 million euros. AC Milan would like to see if Florenzi's pricetag can be lowered, as we have anticipated in March. However, AS Roma do not seem interested in making a big discount.
