Milan make offer for Empoli player

AC Milan have made an official offer for 18 year old winger Marco Olivieri who plays for Empoli. The player was a specific request by U21 manager Gennaro Gattuso.

AC Milan’s new management is focused on building a team capable of challenging Juventus for the Scudetto but also special attention has been payed to the youth sector. Now, the new name the rossoneri are after is Marco Olivieri.

Marco Olivieri is considered to be one of the most exciting talents of Empoli’s youth sector. AC Milan have made an important offer for the 18 year old winger who can play also as a striker. The rossoneri have required his loan for fifty thousand euros with the right to buy for one million and two hundred thousand euros. If Empoli decide to accept AC Milan’s offer, the young player will join U21 manager Gattuso at Primavera team. It is Gattuso himself who has asked Marco Fassone to sign the Italian.

Marco Fassone and Massimiliano Mirabelli have been unstoppable in this summer transfer window signing an unprecedented number of players. The duo has no intention to stop and their focus is not only the first team. AC Milan have already signed the talented Polish midfielder Przemyslaw Bargiel and are chasing Edgar Elizalde, currently at Pescara but on loan from Montevideo. 

Marco Olivieri is also part of the Italian U18 national team, having played 6 games and scoring one time. The rossoneri are awaiting for a definitive answer from Empoli shortly. Even for Elizalde, an official offer was made.
