Official: Milan complete loan signing of West Ham forward Fullkrug

Milan have officially completed the signing of German striker Niclas Fullkrug on loan with an option to buy.

In a statement on their official website, the Rossoneri confirmed their ‘delight’ at the German’s arrival and verified that the German will take the number nine shirt.

The former Werder Bremen and Borussia Dortmund striker only joined the Hammers in 2024 but failed to impress in 18 months in East London.

In 29 appearances for the Premier League side, the German scored just three times and will be hoping to put this difficult spell in England behind him.

A fresh start at Milan could be just what he needs, as the Rossoneri equally have struggled without a confident 9 this season.

The German will be available as soon as tonight for Massimiliano Allegri, who has the ability to utilise the forward in the match against Cagliari. Whilst it is unlikely that he will start the match, Fullkrug may be brought on in the second half.
