Palermo's Antonio Nocerino has joined AC Milan on a five-year deal for a fee believed to be in the region of 2.7 million euros with Palermo gaining co-ownership of Ricardo Ferreira as part of the deal.

Milan has seen its options in the center of the park limited after news of Mathieu Flamini's knee injury and has turned to the former Juventus midfielder, who spent three years with the Sicilian side, where he became a fixture in the first team, making 122 appearances for the club.
