Since the end of January, the forward and his entourage have been talking to Igli Tare (the two have an excellent relationship) about a possible contract extension.

AC Milan announce that Pietro Faccioli has signed his first professional contract. The goalkeeper, born in 2009 and a Rossoneri player for five seasons, will be part of the Milan Futuro project, an initiative dedicated to the growth and development of young talent.
