AC Milan earn millions from Verdi’s transfer to Napoli
Napoli and Bologna are expected to announce in the coming days the transfer of Simone Verdi and AC Milan can be pleased too.
It’s almost official, starting from next season Simone Verdi will play with Napoli. President Aurelio De Laurentis has closed everything with Bologna and the talented Italian international is going to be Carlo Ancelotti’s first purchase at the helm of Napoli. The transfer is expected to cost 25 million euros and the Rossoneri can be very pleased because 20% of that figure is going to AC Milan.
Simone Verdi is a product of AC Milan youth rank. He has made only two official appearances in Coppa Italia with the Red and Black jersey before being shipped to Bologna in 2016 for a very low fee of 1,5 million euros.
With the 20% figure that the Rossoneri will earn (5 million) Verdi’s total transfer price goes to 6,5 million euros. A relatively low sum but enough to reinvest in a decent or promising player this summer.
