Lucas Biglia was unveiled as AC Milan's new number 21 before making his first appearance for the club in a friendly win over Bayern Munich.

AC Milan CEO Marco Fassone handed Lucas Biglia the number 21 shirt as the club's new signing put pen to paper at a presentation before the friendly against Bayern Munich.

The 31-year-old midfielder has signed a three-year contract at San Siro after joining from Lazio in a deal said to be worth €17million.

Milan's director of sport Massimiliano Mirabelli was also on hand in Shenzhen to introduce Biglia to the press ahead of the team's 4-0 victory over Bayern Munich in the International Champions Cup, in which he played 45 minutes as a second-half substitute.

Goals from Kessie, Hakan Calhanoglu and a brace from Patrick Cutrone ensured Biglia's first game in a Milan shirt ended in a convincing win for Vincenzo Montella's men.
