Junior Messias has completed his transfer from Crotone to Milan, on loan with option to buy for a total €8m plus bonuses, and he will wear the Number 30 jersey.
It’s a dream come true for the 30-year-old Brazilian, who only made his Serie A debut last season and until recently had been supplementing his income by delivering washing machines.
The details of the transfer are a loan for €2.6m with option to buy for another €5.4m plus bonuses.
Attacking midfielder Messias scored nine goals and provided four assists in 36 Serie A appearances for Crotone last term, but was unable to prevent their relegation.
He had been at Crotone since 2019, helping them achieve promotion from Serie B to the top flight.
Messias will retain the Number 30 jersey that he also wore at the Stadio Scida last term.
His contract has been registered with the Lega Serie A under an hour from the transfer deadline.
