Sampdoria have officially signed Milan defender Andrea Conti on a permanent transfer, after the €24m buy made just 52 appearances for the club.
The 27-year-old right-back was in the final six months of his contract with the Rossoneri, which was due to expire in June.
He had been signed from Atalanta for €24m in 2017, but his career at San Siro was destroyed by a series of injury problems.
He was loaned to Parma in January 2021, failing to make much of an impact there either.
Since the summer of 2017, Conti managed only 52 competitive games for the Diavolo, in which he contributed five assists.
Conti made just one appearance for Milan this season, for 12 minutes in the 3-1 Serie A victory over Roma on January 6.
According to Calciomercato.com, Milan will receive a minimal transfer fee only once Sampdoria avoid relegation to Serie B.
A product of the Atalanta youth academy, Conti also had loan spells at Perugia and Virtus Lanciano.
