Serie A Transfers: Milan interested in Meite, Strootman returns to Serie A

Here are the latest Serie A transfer news and rumours for today, January 13, 2021.

18-year-old attacking winger, Raul Moro could be leaving Lazio very soon.  Moro, who was signed from Barcelona during the summer of 2019, is yet to break into the Serie A side’s first team.

This has made his agent, Junior Miguel, warn that if Simone Inzaghi doesn’t want him, the club should let him go as there are several top clubs interested.

Moro still has a deal with Lazio, which expires in the summer of 2022. His frustration stemmed from a rejected loan move to Serie B side Salernitana, which is also owned by Claudio Lotito.

Speaking with the Italian media, Miguel noted that he wouldn’t be joining Salernitana, and he could leave Lazio if he is not wanted.

In another development, Torino director of sport Davide Vagnati says Serie A leaders, AC Milan is interested in the midfielder, Soualiho Meite.

He further revealed that discussions have continued between both clubs over a potential move to the Serie A club.

The transfer speculation surrounding the midfielder’s future made him not to make the bench for yesternight’s Coppa Italia Round of 16-game against Milan at San Siro. This is coming a few days after he was dropped in Torino’s last Serie A clash.

Vagnati told RAI Sport that the club would see what pans out in the next few days.

Meanwhile, Kevin Strootman is about confirming his return to Serie A after arriving Genoa for a medical ahead of a loan move from Olympique Marseille.

The Dutchman had made his mark in the league under AS Roma midfielder.  He had announced his arrival at the club by posing at the airport with a Genoa scarf.

The 30-year-old is joining the club on a six-month loan without an option to buy. It was further gathered that Marseille would be paying half of his salary.
