Moretto: Onstein to Milan stalls at the exchange of documents – the latest

There is rarely a transfer that goes smoothly for AC Milan, and the signing of Juwensley Onstein seems to have hit the buffers too.

Earlier in the week, it was reported that talks were advanced between Milan and Genk over the talented young defender. Things then progressed very quickly, to the point that Matteo Moretto even said that Onstein was due in Italy on Thursday for a medical ahead of initially joining the Futuro.

Now, the same journalist is reporting that a hitch has arisen in the negotiations to bring Juwensley Onstein to the Rossoneri. According to Moretto reported via an X, the negotiations have stalled at the paperwork stage, i.e. when the documents were being exchanged.

Nothing more specific is given regarding what the issues are, whether there has been a late change in stance from one of the clubs or if there is another team that have now come in to try and swoop for him. More details will arrive in the coming hours and days, and the deal could yet be unblocked.

Born on October 7, 2007, Onstein began his football career in the Ajax youth academy, then in 2023 he moved to Genk, where he signed a contract until June 2026. The teenager is considered one of the most interesting prospects in Dutch football.
