Belgian winger Moreira signs five-year Milan deal
Diego Moreira moves from Strasbourg for a reported €50 million, the largest sale in the French club’s history.
Belgian international winger Diego Moreira has committed to AC Milan with a five-year contract, as announced by both clubs on Wednesday. The 22-year-old will be with the Serie A side until June 30, 2031. The exact transfer fee has not been disclosed, but media reports suggest it was €50 million (US$58 million), making it the most lucrative deal in Strasbourg's history.
Moreira, who has represented Belgium four times, including one World Cup appearance, began his professional journey with Benfica's reserve team before joining Chelsea in 2023. He spent just one season at Chelsea before being loaned to Lyon, before eventually moving to Strasbourg for €8.5 million the following year. Strasbourg has faced several departures this summer, including a hefty €13 million fine imposed by UEFA for violating Financial Fair Play regulations.
Argentine midfielder Valentin Barco joined Chelsea, while centre-forward Emmanuel Emegha moved to another club. Additionally, attacking midfielders Julio Enciso and Abdoul Ouattara have signed with Premier League club Ipswich, following former Strasbourg manager Gary O'Neil.
