Milan send Pubill for special medical tests and sign Terracciano | OneFootball

Milan have officially signed goalkeeper Pietro Terracciano from Fiorentina, while there are reports Marc Pubill is undergoing preliminary medical tests before agreeing terms with Almeria.

The Rossoneri had already sold Marco Sportiello to Atalanta and this afternoon secured his replacement, signing Terracciano from Fiorentina.

He put pen to paper on a one-year contract with option to extend to June 2027.

The 35-year-old is no relation to Milan midfielder Filippo Terracciano, but he will wear the Number 1 jersey, as Mike Maignan keeps his preferred 16.

Milan worried about Pubill fitness

Meanwhile, Tuttomercatoweb claim that Milan are so worried about the stability of Pubill’s knee that they have sent doctors to Barcelona for a preliminary medical with the right-back.

The 22-year-old emerged for the role over the last few days, as a cheaper alternative to Strasbourg’s Guela Doué, but major concerns remain over his fitness.

It is not entirely surprising that the Rossoneri are unsure, considering Pubill had agreed a transfer to Atalanta last summer only for it to collapse when he failed a medical in Bergamo.

So Milan want to make sure of his fitness before even agreeing a fee with parent club UD Almeria.

The asking price is €15m, so they need reassurances after his surgery in late 2023.
