Sky (via MilanNews) are reporting that regarding Castillejo’s farewell to Milan is imminent. The Spanish winger, who joined the Rossoneri in the summer of 2018, will terminate his contract with the club (without severance pay) and will move to Valencia where he will reunite with Gennaro Gattuso, his former Milan coach.
According to what is being reported now by MilanNews, Castillejo’s departure to join Rino Gattuso’s Valencia is a sale and not a termination of his contract.
While the amount is not specified and it could be virtually zero, it means Milan will receive bonuses based on the objectives set in the contract which they would not have been able to had his deal been ended early, as he would have technically joined Valencia on a free transfer.
