The 21-year-old made only one appearance for Brendan Rodgers’ side this season and has joined the Serie A club on a permanent deal

AC Milan have completed the signing of Liverpool attacker Suso.

The 21-year-old’s only appearance for Brendan Rodgers’ side this season came in their League Cup shootout victory over Middlesbrough in September.

The youngster’s contract was set to expire in the summer, but Liverpool announced the deal had been finalised on Saturday and he will move to San Siro immediately.

“Liverpool FC can confirm that midfielder Suso has today completed a permanent transfer to Italian side AC Milan,” read a club statement.

“The 21-year-old Spaniard departs Anfield for Serie A four-and-a-half years after joining the Reds from Cadiz CF.

“Everybody at Liverpool thanks Suso for his contribution and wishes him all the best for the future.”

Suso made just 21 first-team appearances for Liverpool, scoring once.

He bolsters the attacking options of Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi, whose side sit eighth in Serie A ahead of their home game against Atalanta on Sunday.
