Spanish newspaper AS report that Adil Rami has reached an agreement today to join Milan in January on loan from Valencia.

It was reported on Tuesday morning that the Rossoneri were in talks with the player and Los Che over a proposal to sign the 27-year-old in the winter market on a provisional six-month loan deal.

On from Rami reportedly meeting with Milan officials today, it is understood that an agreement has been reached between all parties.

AS say that alongside the player accepting the deal, Milan have accepted Valencia’s request to take on Rami’s full salary from the start of January through to the end of the season.

It is also understood that the Italians have agreed to a €7m purchase option to then make the deal permanent next summer, which, if activated, would sign the player to a four-year contract.

Whilst Milan will only take up payment of the player’s wages after registering him in the winter market, it is understood that he will leave Valencia immediately.

ADIL RAMI will have his medical already on Saturday but will only be able to start playing with Milan in January.

The January transfer window is quite a long way from now but Milan have already made their first winter signing, securing the transfer of Valencia’s center back Adil Rami who will join the Rossoneri on loan with an option to be bought.

Rami is on terrible terms with Valencia after publicly criticizing the club and the coach in the summer and they looked to offload him as soon as possible. Milan beat other European clubs to the 27-year-old and the player is all set to arrive.

The Frenchman, who is not cup-tied and is good friends with Philippe Mexes, will arrive to Italy today and will be examined by the MilanLab on Saturday at Milanello. Valencia authorized the defender (1.90m, 88kg) to start training with Milan before his move get is official in January. Milan will pay around €0.5m for the loan and the buy-out clause has been set at €6m.

“I have just concluded the transfer, so it is complete,” Ernesto Bronzetti, who acted as the intermediary between Valencia and Milan, told Radio Kiss Kiss yesterday. “The player will go to Milan despite a recent interest from Rafa Benitez at Napoli. The Frenchman was wanted by many clubs, including foreign clubs, but at the end he chose the Rossoneri.” Many believe that Rami will be an upgrade over current CB’s Mexes and Cristian Zapata, who’ve let it 13 goals in just 7 Serie A rounds.

Rami looks like a good pickup, especially at the relatively low price IMO.

but the way of his outburst at Mestalla is quite... 'astonishing' to say the least. 

Hey guys , planning to go to Italy and saw that Milan would be having a champ league match on the 11th . Would like to know if anyone knows how to get a ticket
