Scotland midfielder Lennon Miller has left Glasgow Airport for Italy, where the Motherwell 18-year-old is reportedly to undergo a medical with Udinese.
Both Udinese and Union Saint-Gilloise reportedly had bids rejected for Miller in January.
But Motherwell manager Jens Berthel Askou admitted on Saturday that Miller had been left out of their goalless draw with St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership because of “things going on in the background”.
The son of former Aberdeen and Falkirk striker Lee Miller has already made 76 senior appearances.
He was a near ever-present last season as Motherwell finished eighth in the Scottish Premiership, scoring four goals in his 41 appearances and earning his first two Scotland caps.
Asked about Miller’s absence on Saturday, Askou said: “Yes, it was a final call with everything taken into consideration.
“It’s not a secret that there are things going on in the background. We know he’s been out for four weeks.
