The 26-year-old scored 27 goals in 40 league games last term to help Pescara win promoted to Serie A via the playoffs.

"It was a deal that happened in a flash, strongly desired by both sides, and rightly so", the striker said on AC Milan's website (www.acmilan.com).

Media reports said several Italian top-flight clubs, including Napoli and Juventus, as well as English Premier League champions Leicester City had been interested in Lapadula.
