GdS: Maldini and Massara set to renew next week – then focus on mercato

In the last 24 hours, there has been quite a lot of talk about the renewals of Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara. AC Milan’s mercato pursuits have been blocked because of this matter but now a solution appears close. 

As reported by today’s edition of Gazzetta Dello Sport ( see photo below), the renewals are indeed close and the total agreements should arrive next week. After that, Maldini and Massara will be able to focus solely on the Mercato.

They have several targets in mind and they intend to bring in some high-quality reinforcements, seeing as they want to defend the Scudetto. Divock Origi is already a done deal and the likes of Sven Botman, Renato Sanches and Charles De Ketelaere are also top targets.

As for Sanches, Paris Saint-Germain have entered the race and are ready to offer a higher transfer fee. That might be the price Milan will have to pay for the renewal delay, but soon the directors will work tirelessly to reinforce the team.
