"The documents with Milan still need to be signed. Milan were in advanced negotiations, had effectively blocked Arizala, but the boy's path still needed to be defined and 100% structured,"
"Milan were relying on Toulouse so that the boy could begin his journey in Europe, but Toulouse doesn't have room to include Arizala in their squad. So I tell you that the news is news that raises doubts about Arizala's future at Milan. Toulouse can't be a base for Milan, and there are other clubs pushing for Arizala, who would immediately give him the chance to start, part of a sporting project with a future. So be careful, because Milan could risk losing Arizala."
"Udinese matched Milan's offer to sign Colombian left-back Juan Arizala from Independiente Medellin. Udinese scuppered the agreement already reached between Milan and Independiente. Milan wanted to loan Arizala to Toulouse, but Udinese offered him a place in the first team, convincing him."
AC Milan reached advanced negotiations to sign Colombian left-back Juan Arizala from Independiente Medellin for around €3m with a sell-on clause. The 20-year-old has made 52 appearances, scoring three goals and providing one assist. Milan planned to loan him to Toulouse to begin his European career, but Toulouse had no room to include him and Milan did not finalize the required documents. Competing clubs advanced their interest, and Udinese matched Milan's offer, offering immediate first-team opportunities and convincing Arizala to join Udinese instead of following Milan's planned pathway.
