JAKARTA - AC Milan star, Tijjani Reijnders, confirmed that he was in talks to extend his contract.

Although Reijnders' contract at Milan expires in 2028, his impressive appearance this season has convinced the Rossoneri to open talks to extend the midfielder's stay at the San Siro.

"We're in talks right now, but I can't say much more."

"I saw myself in Milan until I was in my 30s. It was one of the most beautiful clubs in the world and it was an honor to play there."

"Wearing the jersey number 14 Cruyff shirt is a special thing. I'm happy to be in Milan," said Reijnders.

He made the news after helping the Netherlands win 4-0 over Hungary last weekend at the 2024/2025 UEFA Nations League.

De Oranje qualified for the knockout stages after ending Group A3 in second place. Thus, Reijnders and friends will not have the possibility of meeting Italy in the UEFA Nations League quarter-finals.

The Dutch position could no longer be shifted to the standings even though there was still one remaining match against Bosnia-Herzegovina on November 19, 2024.

"I am delighted that the Netherlands qualified for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Nations League. Now, I focus on Bosnia before returning to Milan."

"We have to improve our skills in Serie A, but I'm sure about the match against Juventus," Tijjani Reijnders told Gianlucadimarzio.com.

After the international break, Tijjani Reijnders will return to defend Milan to face the hot match against Juventus at the San Siro on November 24, 2024.

The Rossoneri have 18 points and are in seventh place in Serie A 2024/2025. They are eight points clear of leaders Napoli, but have one game more.

The Indonesian national team player, Eliano Reijnders, has ambitions to give wounds to his competitors in the Scudetto route.

"It's not too late for the Scudetto. There are many teams that are only for a few points. Milan continues to grow as a team, and things will improve," said Reijnders.

Tijjani Reijnders joined Milan with a 20.5 million euro deal from AZ Alkmaar in the summer of 2023.

He has scored four goals and provided three assists in 14 appearances in all competitions with the Rossoneri this season.
