Liverpool, however, have no agreement with Udinese yet. Liverpool do want him, but so do a number of Italian clubs – and selling club Udinese, so far, have seemed to favour the Polish worldwide remaining in Serie A.
Linked with both sides over the summer, the 22-year-old isn’t allowed to say who that is just yet. In the end, Milan appeared on the scene as the alternative and that now looks to be the route that the player will take.
Udinese midfielder Piotr Zielinski’s agent, Bartolomej Bolek, has revealed that his client has decided between AC Milan and Liverpool.
The manager has reiterated his desire to try and formulate the best team for next season, rather than oversee the team with the best players. It seems he’s more willing to accept the deal offered by Milan though, especially knowing we are no longer in for him.
“At the moment nobody thinks about the good games we played last season”, Klopp told journalists. The player was said to have preferred Liverpool and the Premier League, but after talks between the two clubs broke down, he accepted an offer from AC Milan instead.

The Poland star has spent the last two seasons on loan at Empoli and has always been on the Reds’ radar, but his parent club Udinese have proved hard to negotiate with according to Goal. “He will return to Udine on July 22 or 23”.
