Gianluca Lapadula is having his medical check-up with Milan ahead of signing his transfer from Pescara.
After a couple of weeks in which Italian media witnessed a genuine transfer war, largely waged between Napoli and Juventus but also involving the likes of Lazio, Sassuolo and Genoa, the 26-year-old went for a surprise option and chose the Rossoneri.
He is currently at La Madonnina's medical centre in Milan, and he is sustaining his medical examinations to certify that he is fit to play professional football.

"It was a flash move that both of us wanted," the player said, as reported by Gianluca Di Marzio. "I'm very happy for all of this and I'm very grateful to Galliani and the president, whom I wish a speedy recovery.
"Massimo Oddo's comparison with [Miroslav] Klose? Klose's career is of the kind that all players dream of. I must thank the Coach and Pescara for the good words and the faith they've shown in me this year."
