JAKARTA - The process of extending Alessio Romagnoli's contract at AC Milan has yet to find a bright spot. This situation was then exploited by the English Premier League club, Fulham.

Fulham reportedly continues to tease the player with a contract offer. Quoted from Football Italia, the Premier League promotion club has reportedly renewed an offer to sign Romagnoli.

Indeed, Romagnoli is still under contract with Milan until June 30. With the active period of his work contract dwindling, the Italian defender hopes to have clarity about his future in the team.

But both Milan and the player reportedly still have not reached an agreement. The problem with the amount of salary in Romagnoli's new contract is accused of being the cause.

“Fulham have made a new offer for Romagnoli. In this offer, the English club offered Romagnoli a high salary,'' wrote the Italian football journalist, Gianluca Di Marzio, quoted by Football Italia.

This is the second offer made by The Cottagers for the Italian. Despite being convinced twice, Romagnoli reportedly still has doubts about accepting The Cottagers' proposal. The reason, he was waiting for Lazio's proposal.

However, the offer from I Biancoceleste did not come. Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri is said to be not interested in signing Romagnoli. If Lazio intends to bring Romagnoli they must first release Francesco Acerbi.

Romagnoli first represented Milan in 2015 after being signed by AS Roma for a fee of 25 million euros and became a mainstay of the team. After Leonardo Bonucci's departure to Juventus, Romagnoli was also trusted to wear the captain's armband for the Rossoneri first team at the start of the 2018/2019 season.

Unfortunately, at the start of the 2020/2021 season, Romagnoli's performance began to decline due to a series of minor injuries. Romagnoli also lost his place in the first team and was replaced by Fikayo Tomori. Similar conditions occurred this season when Romagnoli only packed 26 matches in all competitions.
