The suspended Ghana international is on his way back to the Rossoneri after three years of his departure from the team.

Ghana midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng will sign for Italian giants AC Milan in January, club chief executive officer Adriano Galliani has revealed.

Boateng has been on the search for a new club, having been released by German side Schalke 04 in March.

The quest saw him on two separate occasions closely linked to Portuguese side Sporting Lisbon as well as Saudi outfit Ittihad FC, but both moves fell through for separate reasons.

He has since been training with Milan, leading to several reports of a return to a club he left in 2013.

“We have a fine squad with 28 players and Boateng will very probably be added to them,” Galliani told Mediaset Premium.

“If we are able to sell someone, then others could potentially arrived, but it’s a big squad.

“It’s easy to buy players, but more difficult to sell. Agents telephone you to propose their players, but they don’t ask for them.

“I don’t want to create any illusions. I am convinced Milan have an important team.”

Together with Sidney Sam and Marco Hoger, Boateng was suspended in March by Schalke after a surprise 2-0 defeat at the hands of Cologne in the Bundesliga.

 
He made 74 Serie A appearances and scored 10 goals in three seasons during his earlier Milan days, winning the Scudetto and Italian Supercoppa.
