Report Liberali snubbed Milan in favour of Como in €6m move

Report Liberali snubbed Milan in favour of Como in €6m move Mattia Liberali has snubbed Milan’s attempts to talk him into coming back to San Siro from Catanzaro, so he will join Como for the €6m clause, claim multiple reports. The midfielder turned 19 in April and is a product of the Rossoneri youth academy.

However, Como got there first and convinced the player that this was the correct next step in his career after they qualified for the Champions League. Multiple sources including Sky Sport Italia, Fabrizio Romano, Gazzetta dello Sport and more all confirm that Milan tried desperately to talk Liberali into changing his mind today, including with patron Gerry Cardinale’s personal call. The teenager was not swayed, and is therefore ready to accept the €6m move to Como within the next 48 hours. According to MilanNews , the presence of Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the decision-making process had been one of the biggest problems for Liberali last year, and that has not changed.
