ROME, Feb. 3 (Xinhua) -- Italian Serie A giant AC Milan had a busy final day of the winter transfer window, announcing two moves on Monday, including the arrival of Mexican striker Santiago Tomas Gimenez from Feyenoord, after the departure of Alvaro Morata.

Milan will face Feyenoord in the Champions League knockout phase play-off, but the Rossoneri have already weakened its opponent ahead of the clash, as Gimenez has signed a contract with the Diavolo until 2029.

Born in 2001, Gimenez joined Feyenoord in the summer of 2022 and scored 65 goals in 105 appearances. He took one Eredivisie title, one KNVB Cup and one Johan Cruyff Shield to his trophy cabinet in the Netherlands.

It is reported that the move has cost Milan 32 million euros, and the Mexican will wear the No. 7 jersey previously donned by Spain's Morata, who has moved to Turkish club Galatasaray on loan.

Milan was active in the final hours of the transfer window, as the club also announced the loan move of Riccardo Sottil from Fiorentina and the permanent deal of Warren Bondo from Monza. Meanwhile, the club also confirmed the exits of Davide Calabria, Ismael Bennacer and Noah Okafor.

Despite no official statement having yet been made, the Rossoneri are also likely to welcome forward Joao Felix on loan from Chelsea, as the Portuguese has landed in Milan and reportedly agreed a deal with the club. Enditem
