AC Milan are preparing a new offer for AS Monaco midfielder Youssouf Fofana which would include the French side getting a percentage of any future sale.
As reported by Il Giornale (via Milan News), the Rossoneri will be making a fresh offer for the French midfielder next week and they are willing to try and sweeten the deal with a special clause.
The new offer from Milan is expected to be €20m, but it would also allow Monaco to collect 10% of any fee that Milan then sell him for in the future.
Considering Fofana will be leaving Monaco for less than his market value due to having one year left on his contract, and that he is 25 years old, Milan could well end up selling him for more than €20m in the future if he performs well.
Monaco reportedly want €30m for Fofana so this bid still may not be enough to please them, but the two clubs would be closer in valuation than they were before.
West Ham offered €30m but Fofana is only interested in joining Milan right now. He already has an agreement with the Rossoneri on a four-year contract worth €3m per season, so the problem is only with Monaco rather than the player.
