Milan Is Hunting For New Players And Ready To Extend The Contract Of 3 Key Players
JAKARTA - AC Milan management has prepared a plan to renew the contracts of key players. They will also be hunting for new players in the winter transfer window.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Friday, 6 November (via MilanNews), it is difficult to say which area Milan will be eyeing once the windows reopen, the only certainty that Milan need a center-back.
Management is also working to tie Gianluigi Donnarumma, Hakan Calhanoglu and Zlatan Ibrahimovic into a new deal, whose current contract expires on June 30.
Time is running out, but as director Paolo Maldini admitted before the match against Lille, a deal could come at any time.
In the past week, there has been a lot of speculation about the extension of Donnarumma and Calhanoglu, but it appears the club is also preparing a bid that will see Ibrahimovic stay at the San Siro into his 40s.
After the game against Hellas Verona on Sunday night there will be another international break, and that could be an important period for reaching an agreement.
Milan themselves only suffered their first defeat this season when they were beaten by Lille 3-0 in the Europa League on Friday morning. The result at the same time ended the Rossoneri's 24-match unbeaten run.
Not only that, this is also Milan's first home defeat since they were beaten 1-2 to Genoa on March 8.
Reflecting on these results, it seems that Milan officials can already see where the weak points of Stefano Pioli's team are.
