Watch out! Ruben Amorim hijacks Sporting target for Milan | OneFootball

Aurelien Guernier, who had been on Sporting’s radar, is already in Italy to strengthen Milan and becomes the second signing of the Ruben Amorim era at the rossoneri club, following the arrival of Francesco Camarda. The 18-year-old left winger, who saw his contract with Birmingham expire, will undergo medical tests before signing a deal that will apparently run until June 2029.

The young Frenchman arrives on a free transfer after ending his ties with the English club, where he split last season between the under-18 and under-21 teams. Considered one of the brightest prospects to come through Birmingham’s academy, Guernier attracted interest from several European clubs over the past few months.

Sporting were among the clubs keeping a close eye on the player’s situation. The Lions followed the winger’s progress and assessed the possibility of moving for his signing, taking advantage of the fact that he would be available on the market.

. The presence of Ruben Amorim in charge and the project presented by the Italians ultimately weighed in the young footballer’s final decision.

As a result, Sporting miss out on yet another target identified for the attacking sector, while Milan continue to strengthen for the new season. Guernier is now preparing to take his first step into top-level senior football after standing out in Birmingham’s youth ranks.
