Milan: AC Milan have signed midfielder Diego Laxalt from Genoa following his standout performances for Uruguay at the World Cup.

Laxalt helped the Uruguayans reach the World Cup quarter-finals.

Spanish winger Samu Castillejo is also headed to Milan. Castillejo arrives from Villarreal, where he scored six goals in the Spanish league last season.

Italian forward Gianluca Lapadula left Milan for Genoa.

Following a takeover last month by American hedge fund Elliott Management, Milan previously signed forward Gonzalo Higuain on loan from Juventus and also brought in midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko on loan from Chelsea.
