Christian Vieri has ended his Milan stint after just six months by signing for Monaco, the Italian club have confirmed.
An agreement between all three parties has been reached on Monday and the player will tomorrow complete the switch.
Vieri will now have his medical with the Ligue 1 club on Tuesday morning before putting pen to paper on a deal which should expire in 2007.
The Italian international, who will partner Marco Di Vaio in Francesco Guidolin’s side, requested a move amid fears he would miss out on a World Cup spot.
The 33-year-old only joined Milan in the summer from Inter on a free transfer, but has scored just one League goal in eight appearances.
It’s believed that Vieri has accepted a cut in wages to secure the move to the French First Division outfit.
Milan have already confirmed that they will sign a new attacker once the much-travelled striker packs his bags.
No details of a fee have been released. |
