The latest reports reveal that Milan have taken a significant step towards the signing of Victor Boniface after pulling out of negotiations with Manchester United over Rasmus Højlund, submitting an offer to sign the Nigerian striker on loan with an option to buy. The parties to the deal will work today to finalize contractual arrangements and formal documents, with the hope of concluding the deal before AC Milan’s opening match in the Italian Serie A against Cremonese on Saturday.

Reports indicate that the two clubs have already reached an agreement on the transfer fee and terms, with Victor Boniface having given his final consent to wear the AC Milan shirt.
