Italian right-back Florenzi joins AC Milan on loan

AC Milan on Saturday signed Italian right-back Alessandro Florenzi on loan from Roma.

“AC Milan are delighted to announce the signing of Alessandro Florenzi from AS Roma on an initial loan deal, with the option to make the transfer permanent. The player has signed for the Rossoneri until 30 June 2022 and will wear the number 25 shirt,” Milan said in a statement.

Florenzi, 30, who can also play as a right midfielder, was part of the Italian squad that won the EURO 2020 title in July.

He made his Italian Serie A debut with Roma in 2011.

Florenzi hopped to Spanish club Valencia in 2020 for a six-month stint, before spending the 2020-21 campaign at French powerhouse Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

He scored two goals in 36 appearances for PSG, who won the French Cup and French Super Cup last season.
