Real Madrid forward Huntelaar joins AC Milan
Adjust font size:

Real Madrid sold striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar to Italian side AC Milan this Thursday.

Real Madrid has confirmed the news with an official communique on the club website.

Huntelaar, who joined Real Madrid for 20 million euros in December 2008, scored eight goals in just 20 Primera Liga appearances for the club.

He didn’t play for them in the Champions League after an error by Real Madrid meant he was unable to be included in the squad for the second phase of the competition as he had already played for his former club Ajax in Europe.

The price is reported to be between 15 million and 18 million euros, a substantial loss for Real Madrid, as the Spanish club has an agreement to pay 7 million euros from any transfer to Ajax.

Milan Director General Adriano Galliani told Italian TV Station "Sky" that Huntelaar would sign a contract keeping him at the club until 2013.
