During Paulo Fonseca's presentation press conference, Zlatan Ibrahimovic was quite clear about the number of players who will make up Milan's squad next season. According to the Swedish executive, having a squad of 30 players risks being "harmful," which is why the Rossoneri are working in this transfer market to offload those players who do not fit into the plans of the Portuguese coach.
Among them is Lorenzo Colombo, who returns from a loan season at Monza, where he made 25 appearances in Serie A, scored 4 goals, including one against Milan, and provided an assist.
The future of the 2002-born player seems to be away from Milan next season, as confirmed this morning by Il Corriere dello Sport following recent rumours.
According to the source, Lorenzo Colombo is expected to soon become a new player for Empoli. Thus, the issue regarding the transfer format of the forward to the Azzurri has also been resolved, as it will be a straightforward one-year loan.
