Friday 13 June, 2008
Milan have officially completed the transfer of Barcelona’s Azzurri defender Gianluca Zambrotta, confirming the fee and contract terms.
The deal has been public knowledge for weeks, but the two clubs only finalised the transfer today.
Zambrotta, who has been a Rossoneri target for over a decade, has finally been added to the Diavolo ranks.
“Barcelona and Milan have signed the agreement this morning for the passage of Zambrotta to the Rossoneri on a permanent basis,” a statement confirmed.
“Zambrotta will sign a contract with Milan until 2012. The cost of the transfer is £7m, plus the possibility of an additional £1.6m depending on the Diavolo’s League position next season.”
The 31-year-old’s wages are expected to amount to around £2.5m per season.
