Milan loan Digão to Standard
AC Milan have announced that Brazilian defender Digao has joined Belgian club Standard Liege on a one year loan deal.
The 22-year-old is best known as the younger brother of European and World Footballer of the Year Kaka, but since joining the Rossoneri from Sao Paulo in 2004 he has failed to get anywhere near the levels of his sibling.The centre back spent 2005 until 2007 on loan at Serie B side Rimini, but returned to Milan last season. He made just one Serie A appearance all campaign in the 1-1 draw against Lazio, and has not been particularly impressive during the current pre-season.
Milan have now announced on their official website that Digao has joined Belgian club Standard Liege on a one-year loan deal.
The Brazilian is the second defender to leave the Diavoli in a matter of days, following the sale of Dario Simic to Monaco.
It now seems even more inevitable that Milan will go into the market for a replacement centre half, with Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic the hot favourite to arrive at San Siro.
