CM: Liberali’s Milan exit signed and sealed – when he will officially join Catanzaro

AC Milan have, today, signed a deal with Catanzaro for the permanent transfer of young midfielder Mattia Liberali. 

The situation with Liberali is somewhat of a sad one. It is never nice to see a young player leave, especially a young one with a high ceiling. However, sometimes there is little that can be done to actually stop it.

Of course, Milan could have prevented it, and Igli Tare did hope to have the midfielder around past this summer. But it was not to be. Instead, he will leave.

Deal done

Rather than heading to another Serie A club, though, as has been rumoured. He will instead head to Serie B and Catanzaro, where he will continue to develop and then potentially move to a Serie A club, a little like how Daniel Maldini did.

The deal, as reported by Calciomercato.com, has been signed and sealed today, with all parties exchanging the relevant documents. So, all that needs to be done now is the medical part of the deal.

It is important to remember that, as part of the deal, albeit for free now, the Diavolo will get 50% of any future sale. Meaning they could see a nice amount of money in the future, or even get a discount if they were to try to purchase him back in the future.
