AC Milan have completed the signing of winger Diego Moreira from RC Strasbourg for a fee reported to be in excess of €50 million, according to multiple sources. The deal, which was finalized on August 18, 2026, came as a surprise to many, with agent Jorge Mendes reportedly playing a pivotal role in facilitating the transfer.
Moreira, who joined Strasbourg in 2024 from Chelsea, had an impressive stint in Ligue 1, scoring 12 goals and providing 8 assists in 38 appearances last season. His performances attracted interest from several top European clubs, but Milan moved swiftly to secure his signature.
The 22-year-old Portuguese winger has signed a five-year contract with the Rossoneri, keeping him at the San Siro until 2031. Milan's sporting director, Geoffrey Moncada, praised Moreira's versatility and attacking prowess, stating, "Diego is a player we have tracked for a long time, and we believe he will be a key asset for our squad."
This transfer marks the second significant deal between Milan and Mendes's agency, following the earlier acquisition of another client. The move is seen as a statement of intent from Milan as they look to strengthen their squad for the upcoming Serie A season.
