AC Milan continue their summer revolution and have announced a deal with Valencia to sign U.S. men's national team talent Yunus Musah. The Italian giants agreed personal terms with the American midfielder weeks ago and have now agreed also with the Spanish club a fee of around €20 million, add-ons included. AC Milan have announced the signing of Musah on Friday: "AC Milan is pleased to announce the signing of Yunus Musah on a permanent basis. The midfielder has signed a contract with the Club until 30 June 2028. Musah will wear the jersey number 80". 

Musah arrived in Italy on Thursday before undergoing the medicals with his new club and he will join his national teammate Christian Pulisic, who also joined AC Milan this summer and has already started to play quite well on the preseason tour. Musah will be AC Milan's eighth signing of the summer, as the Italian side are going through some big changes in the roster as they look to return to the Serie A summit and make another deep run in the Champions League. 

Musah has played 24 games with the USMNT, including four games at the 2022 World Cup where he was a starter for the team coached by Gregg Berhalter. He joined Valencia in the summer of 2020 from Arsenal and became a key player for the Spanish side. Last season, he played 37 games in all competitions, scoring two goals.

After selling midfielder Sandro Tonali to Newcastle for a club-record sale of €80 million add-ons included, AC Milan signed goalkeeper Marco Sportiello and midfielder Luka Romero as free agents. Then, they signed Pulisic from Chelsea, midfielders Tijjani Reijnders from Feyenoord and Ruben Loftus-Cheek from Chelsea, and most recently winger Samuel Chukwueze from Villarreal and striker Noah Okafor from RB Salzburg.
