AC Milan are ready to make another offer to midfielder Franck Kessie in the hopes of getting him to renew his contract, according to a report.
According to this morning’s edition of il Corriere dello Sport (via MilanLive), the management are not put off by his up and down performances so far this season and are thinking of raising their offer to the Ivorian by offering a higher annual salary than in previous bids.
Paolo Maldini is prepared to offer a deal worth €6.5m net per season for five years, therefore a commitment of €32.5m net without tax. It is a significant development, given that so far Milan have always stopped at a €5m fixed plus bonuses.
However, the requests from his agent George Atangana are currently standing at €8.5m net including bonuses and it is a figure that Milan are very unlikely to satisfy. PSG and Tottenham have presented concrete expressions of interest in signing him on a free transfer which could turn his head, but Milan have not given up.

Don’t do this. He’s a liar & not even the best player in the team, why should he get so much more than the others?
Let him leave for free & get over it.
Yeah, don’t they get it?? Cashie is cashie. His heart’s in different club already.
Yeah! Cashie, Gigio Dollarumma, Dinar Calhanoglu, Zlatan Lirahimovic, Alessio Dollagnoli, Peso Hernandez! Let’s get some more in here!
Sign then sell. Lol.
I think Milan management don’t understand that he want to leave for free, that’s why he keeps increasing his request. I am sure if he would be asking for around 20M towards the end of this season. Even if they find a solution, he would renew probably for 1 or 2 years and start blackmailing even for a higher amount. Let’s keep who we can and leave the others, else we would end up in a state where we would be forced to sell players to keep financial stability. Players who don’t understand the financial situation now are bound to leave eventually when they get a better offer.
