Didn't he come from Empoli? What a waste of time for Milan and for himself too. Confused

Well, to be fair to the guy he was a decent talent and people believed in him. Unfortunately it didn't work out, with multiple injuries being a big part of it. Good luck to him at Empoli.
What a pity Sapo couldn't make it here. He was one of the best in Serie B that season
Saponara is limited , I said it from day 1.He has poor vision is slow doesnt/wont track back & is weak physically.What really disappointed me was his work ethic he was lazy & just seemed content to be at Milan.He spent more time on his ass than grabbing his chance.For a Milan fan he had the chance of a lifetime , even if he worked hard like Poli who is also limited he could of had a Poli like roll & maybe got a bit more smarter as seasons went by.

That said I dont dislike him I wish him the best.

Saponara is a better player than Poli....if you don't consider work rate. If you do Sapo is far behind.

Saponara is average in every aspect,very lazy too which makes a terrible combination. I said this from the moment he signed and that he really needed to up his work rate.He's good for Serie B or a rebound team ( one that gets relegated and promoted often) he really needs to put in the work & then maybe he'll have a better career ,I think at best he could be a Parolo type player.
Looks like the Siqueira deal looks realistic, I think Atletico want 5m (that's the figure I read somewhere). They rejected a loan.

As Arildonardo says, Suso is official. On Saponara, for now I think the loan is a fair move.
Saw this article and I thought it would interest a few of you. Agree with everything Monto says:

There is more to the problem then just mentality. Like for example......quality.
