Diego Laxalt has departed AC Milan to join Dinamo Moscow on a permanent deal.

The Uruguayan defender became Celtic's first player from that country last season when he joined on a season-long loan deal. 

However he had a tough time of it and was in and out of the team like his competition Greg Taylor. 

Having made 26 appearances as a Hoops player, scoring once in a 2-2 draw away to Hibs, Laxalt headed back to Serie A with Milan following the expiration of his loan deal.

And now the European giants have confirmed he will officially join Dinamo on July 1.

"AC Milan announces that Diego Sebastián Laxalt Suárez is set to join FK Dinamo Moscow on a permanent deal, starting 1 July 2021," a statement read.

"The Club would like to thank Diego for his professionalism and wishes him all best for his personal and professional future."
