The 21-year-old must still undergo a medical and administrative details need to be completed however.

Gourcuff, who came through the Rennes youth scheme, arrived in Milan in the 2006 pre-season, showing promise in his first season and playing 21 matches and scoring one goal.

This season, however, he has only played 15 matches, and only four in the starting eleven, scoring one goal.
