Adriano Galliani was the one who most strongly wanted Daniel Maldini at Monza, and he reportedly wants to make sure he keeps him beyond the current season.
Calciomercato.com writes how Daniel Maldinihas found everything he needs to perform at his best since joining Monza. Galliani’s presence helps, as does the trust of coach Raffaele Palladino and a squad made up of many familiar names like Lorenzo Colombo.
It’s not so much a question of getting playing time as a starter but more about rediscovering that feeling of being important for the team, something that he missed while he was with Empoli in the first half of the season.
On the other hand, the son of Paolo directly brought six points to Monza with the two winning goals scored against Salernitana and Genoa, helping them maintain a mid-table spot.
In the January transfer window, Monza – thanks to the good relationships between the two managing directors Galliani and Giorgio Furlani – closed the Maldini operation with Milan on a dry loan.
There was a ‘promise’ attached to it: to talk about the future of the forward with more calm at the end of the season. Now the goal of the Brianza club is to try to sign Daniel permanently.
He is tied to Milan by a contract until 2025 and can leave permanently for around €4-5m, or at least that is the feeling. The meeting is set for the end of the season, with the remaining games of course playing a part.
