Oguchi Onyewu Set For Whistle-Stop Milan Visit

Saturday, 11 July 09, 05:06 AM · Comments (1)

The defender is expected to undergo a medical next week but will only join the squad during their US tour. Milan completed the signing of USA international centre-back Oguchi Onyewu this week on a free transfer from Belgian club Standard Liege. La Gazzetta dello Sport today reports that the 27-year-old will fly to Italy’s fashion capital at the start of next week to undergo a routine medical with the Rossoneri before finalising his transfer. Onyewu will be shown around the Milanello facilities and will get to know his new team-mates, but will only stay in Italy for a couple of days before resuming his holidays. The powerful central defender was in action with the USA national team until June 28, when the Yanks lost 3-2 to Brazil in the final of the Confederations Cup. Therefore, he will be granted a few extra days of rest and will probably team up with the rest of the squad in Atlanta on July 21. Milan will face Club America in the World Football Challenge the following day and Onyewu could make his debut against Chelsea on July 24 in Baltimore, or in the first derby of the season against Inter in Boston on July 26.
