Flamengo star 'happy and enthusiastic' ahead of AC Milan move
"I cannot say much for contractual reasons, but I am happy and enthusiastic, full of joy. Before joining Milan I want to give the Brazilian title to the Flamengo fans," he said.
The Brazilian was signed by Milan for a total fee of 35 million euros plus bonuses. The player will end his commitments in the Brazilian league at the beginning of December and is expected in Italy afterwards to start working with his new teammates, before the officialization of the transfer in January.
According to the Brazilian press, the Rossoneri would have already paid the first instalment of the transfer (5 million euros) to Flamengo, with the remainder to be paid between 2019 and 2020.
