CM: Milan could let star midfielder leave for free; next three months crucial

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan midfielder Giacomo Bonaventura is reportedly heading towards leaving the club at the end of the season with no new talks planned over his renewal.

The 30-year-old has played just 113 minutes across four appearances so far this season, having recovered from a serious knee injury last season which required surgery.

Bonaventura has been an important part of the Rossoneri since his arrival from Atalanta, amassing 31 goals and 16 assists in 156 appearances in all competitions.

However now it seems like the club’s owners Elliott Management are heading in a more youthful direction, and Calciomercato.com claim this could be bad news for Jack.

The outlet claims that there are no talks scheduled over the renewal of his contract, which expires on 30 June 2020, and that it is a ‘situation that has not been addressed’.

As a result, Bonaventura could say farewell to Milan at the end of the season, despite the fact that Stefano Pioli ‘likes the midfielder very much’.

Bonaventura will fight over the next three months to try and earn a new deal to stay with the Diavolo, and the period between now and the end of January is crucial for his future, the report concludes.
