Milan are not just negotiating with Torino for Samuele Ricci, where they are close to an agreement, but also to hand over striker Lorenzo Colombo.

The two clubs are working in close contact over the last few days to work out two different deals and currently they are not believed to be connected.

The first is the push for Milan to sign Ricci, with an agreement that should arrive fairly quickly for circa €25m plus bonuses, a significant drop from the original €33m asking price.

Ricci has already agreed the personal terms with a five-year contract for the switch to San Siro.

Colombo and Ricci part of Milan talks

Meanwhile, Calciomercato.com note that the two clubs are also having talks for the future of Colombo.

The 23-year-old center-forward is a product of the Rossoneri youth academy who went out on several loan experiences to Cremonese, SPAL, Lecce and most recently Empoli.

He scored six goals with two assists in 37 Serie A appearances for the Tuscans this season and is returning to base.

It could be another loan with option to buy for Torino rather than a permanent transfer straight away for Colombo.

He has also been mentioned as part of a potential swap deal with Parma for defender Giovanni Leoni.
