AC Milan have officially confirmed the signing of German striker Niclas Fullkrug on loan from West Ham United, with an option to make the move permanent at the end of the season. The deal sees the Rossoneri strengthen their attacking depth as they push to maintain momentum in Serie A, a move reported when Milan agreed terms for a loan deal with a buy option .
The transfer was completed after Fullkrug made it clear that his priority was a switch to San Siro rather than a return to the Bundesliga, as reported by SoftFootball .
The 32-year-old had already been training at Milanello in recent days, signalling how keen he was on the move, and his desire to join Milan ahead of other suitors played a key role in finalising the agreement. As shared on the clubs official X account , Fullkrug joins AC Milan on a loan deal that runs until June 2026, with no obligation to buy.
