Estupiñán - Milan is a deal almost done. The operation, according to what Fabrizio Romano reports, should be closed for a fee of 17 million euros plus 2 million euros in bonuses. The defender will sign a four-year contract, with an option for an additional year until June 2030, and will earn 2.5 million euros net per season.
The Ecuadorian left-back arrives to replace the 27-year-old Theo Hernandez. A difficult task. Theo is the best defender in Rossoneri history in terms of goals scored. This season, he even surpassed the legend Paolo Maldini. All of this achieved in just six years at Milan. Extraordinary numbers that, clearly, cannot be expected from Pervis Estupiñán.

Pervis Estupinan's career:
The new signing is in the prime of his career and strongly wanted Milan in order to make the definitive step up in quality. Born in 1998, he developed as a footballer in Ecuador, his home country, and was brought to Europe in the 2016/2017 season by Italian side Udinese. The Friuli-based club then loaned him to Granada. After that, he continued to move between the Spanish La Liga and the Premier League, wearing the shirts of Watford, Almeria, Mallorca, Osasuna, and Villarreal. Over the last three seasons, he played for Brighton. With the 'Seagulls', he made 104 appearances, scoring 5 goals and providing 14 assists.
Technical characteristics:
The Players coming from the English Premier league often have an advantage, at least initially: the intensity and speed of the Premier League are higher than those of Serie A. And this can matter a lot, especially for an attacking full-back with clearly offensive traits. Pervis Estupiñán, in fact, stands out in stats related to shots on target per game, attempted passes, vertical passes, and progressive carries.
On the other hand, the Premier League players are sometimes seen as tactically undisciplined and lacking in defensive skills. On these fronts, his former coach Roberto De Zerbi vouches for the Ecuadorian, having spoken very positively about his former player.
Indeed, the Italian coach is well known for his tactical rigor and the attention he demands from his players in both phases of the game. Hence, Pervis Estupiñán’s good defensive statistics may not come as a surprise. Over the past year, he stood out for tackles, interceptions, and balls recovered. Moreover, despite not having a particularly imposing physical frame (179 cm x 75 kg), he made his mark with the number of aerial duels won per match.
In short, he is a complete full-back, skilled and diligent in both phases. A useful addition for head coach Massimiliano Allegri, who could even deploy him as a wing-back if switching to a three-man defense. Now it’s just a matter of waiting for his first appearances in the Rossoneri shirt, which, as we know, is certainly no ordinary shirt.
