Niang has chosen nr 19. I know nothing about him but looking forward to see him play.
 
I saw some minutes from his game for the primavera, and I think he can be very good player.

He has a good ball control, speed, he is strong and seems confident ... And most importantly he is not even 18y.
 
I knew there had to be reason for buying Traoré.

Milan ready to dump Niang - report

AC Milan are reportedly ready to allow summer signing M'Baye Niang to leave, perhaps as early as January, as patience with the France Under-21 international wears thin.

The Rossoneri spent around €2 million to bring the 17-year-old to the club from Caen in August but his time in Italy has been fraught with issues.

Niang was stopped by police for driving without a licence and was then punished by the French Football Federation for visiting a nightclub on the eve of the U-21s' shock 6-3 European Championship play-off loss to Norway.

Those episodes have, according to numerous reports in the Italian media, seen the Milan hierarchy consider his future.

Indeed, La Gazzetta dello Sport believe the club may be keen to send him out on loan in the Jaunary transfer window, with his availability likely to alert a number of English clubs including Everton, Arsenal and Tottenham, who were all interested in him prior to his San Siro move.
 
Agreed.

It seems like the boy is doing stupid thing rather consistently, though. And he almost never features in our bench, let alone in the starting eleven.

If thing stay like this, it's hard to imagine that he'll stay for much longer.
 
Please, he is to young for our starting 11. It is not like he is a top top player that is punished by not being picked. and with a investment like the one we did we won't just let him go that easily. Obviously the talked about loan seems like a good solution.
 
Yeah we paid €2m for him which if much for us to spend on a 17 year old. They are probably talking about a loan, but I hope that we loan him in Serie A and not abroad.
 
We're not traditionally a club which tolerates trouble makers (even if some of our recent signings have records of creating issues), so, even if he may be very talented (can't say for sure), it wouldn't surprise me if we never got to to see him play for Milan.
 
I was thinking about a loan more likely than permanent transfer as well, but it's certainly not looking good in any case.

It must be said that this guy was signed when he was already playing first team football, - in France and not in some obscure league. Despite the age, I doubt he sees himself as a primavera player.

I would just hate if this became another case of Viudez and the likes.
 
I don't know who the hell this is, just that he's a very young striker coming over from Caen.

He signed a 3 year deal btw.
And he extended his contract to 2017 on his birthday last month (19th of December 2012).
