Reports: Fullkrug to become the new Milan No.9 after medical visit – the final step

AC Milan will complete the signing of Niclas Fullkrug officially next month. However, the deal is all but done, as reports suggest tonight.

In the past week, things have progressed rapidly with Fullkrug, and the German has sealed his move to San Siro, it seems. Yesterday was set to be his day, but he did not travel until late at night, meaning things have been postponed until today.

So, this morning, he arrived for his medical, and now, almost 10 hours later, he has finished all the checks and can almost be considered a Milan player.

The real Fullkrug day

Antonio Vitiello broke the news first, stating that the medical had finished at around 5:45 CET. Additionally, it was reported that the German would be at Milanello tomorrow (December 24) to meet his new teammates and more importantly, Massimiliano Allegri.

Then, in the minutes that followed, Luca Bianchin confirmed this information, stating, ‘as soon as West Ham give the green light, he will be able to train with the team’, with the medical completed.

The German has also decided to take the No.9 shirt, which has been left vacant since Luka Jovic’s departure in the summer. Today is truly Fullkrug day, and already he is looking forward to meeting his new teammates and staff.
