AC Milan director Ariedo Braida cannot guarantee the status of Stephan El Shaarawy.

The midfielder, however, remains a Milan player - for now.

"At this time, El Shaarawy is not moving from Milan. Again, to avoid any misunderstandings - for the moment the situation is like this," Braida first told itasportpress.it.

"However, anything is possible in football, more so considering the fact that the transfer market has yet to officially open and will also be particularly long.

"Would we send El Shaarawy to Torino? If at the end of market we decide to move the boy out, who no doubt has talent, there would be no problem in sending him out to Torino.

"[President Urbano] Cairo is also a friend, so there would be no problem at all.

"Today, El Shaarawy plays for Milan, but tomorrow the situation could change."
