Diego Moreira joins AC Milan from Strasbourg for 50 million euros
Summary

Diego Moreira has transferred to AC Milan from Strasbourg for a reported fee of 50 million euros ($58.5 million). The 22-year-old winger signed a five-year contract with Milan on August 19. Moreira's departure contributes to Strasbourg's total player sales of around 100 million euros this week, amid UEFA scrutiny for financial breaches. The club, owned by Chelsea’s holding company BlueCo, faces pressure to reduce player costs as it won't participate in European competitions this season after reaching the semifinals of the Conference League last year.
