AC Milan have discussed several renewals in recent months and as the summer approaches, those discussions will be finalised one way or another.
It seems as though it’ll be another busy summer at Milan. However, it does not just seem that way from a managerial perspective. Indeed, the players on the pitch will likely change too, perhaps due to the different contractual situations which the club is facing.

Contracts to sort
As Gazzetta dello Sport write today, there are several players with their futures on the table and some decisions must be made… if they have not already been made.
It starts with Rafael Leao, who only a few months ago was in talks to renew his deal with the Rossoneri. However, he has since become a symbol of the dropping standards and talks have gone cold. In fact, the discussions would now suggest that he is heading for an exit.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek seems similar, too. Once a pillar, he has faded into the background and now Milan will look to sell him in the summer despite renewal talks being expected in recent months.
One player whom they will have no say in his future is Luka Modric, instead, talking must be done on the pitch. If they are to qualify for the Champions League, his chances of a renewal are much higher.
Fikayo Tomori is the closest player of anyone to a renewal. Talks have been ongoing for a few months now and his wishes are clear; he wants to stay at Milanello. Not much movement has occurred to make things official, but it would not be a surprise.
Finally, we have Christian Pulisic. The American will spend the summer in the United States for the World Cup. In the meantime, something must give one way or the other about his future. Talks took off and then stalled again at the start of the year. Since then, renewal talks have been minimal.
Something must happen this summer, one way or the other.
Keep Modric for 1 more season, sell the rest of them.
Get a high performing traditional Striker and renew Pulisic.
Why would you think Pulisic would want to stay? To be a grunt. He was so missed by Allegri.
If Allegri stays Pulisic will not renew. Allegri is a strikers worst nightmare as a manager
Pulisic at least does grunt work… I really hoped this was Leao’s season (injuries are a bit over-used excuse)… look at Olise and Kvara
RLC, Fulkrug, Odogu, Estupinan are extras… maybe Leao, the rest should stay
Gimenez is extra too.
I think leao with milan its done bro… As long as Allegri the manager, he will bench warmer. Athekame already 2 golazo goals, hope Allegri know it how to use him next season
You know what really works for teams….selling everybody and bringing in players other teams don’t want. Bayern, Real, Barca, Liverpool, Man City, Inter…thats all they do, Fire coaches every year and sell all their players. lol. But this is exactly what us Milan fans want every single year! This franchise needs stability. Not upheaval.
My words. The squad per se is not that bad. Better figure out why the individuals do not perform at Milan, because obviously they were able to do so before.
I don’t disagree. I think the only player we *need* are a good striker, a good defensive midfielder, a decent LB to be able to alternate with Bartesaghi and another CB for depth and to maybe improve on Tomori. Sell Leao to fund the striker; use the 30M “budget” to get the DM; sell Colombo, RLC, Bennacer and Chukwueze and use that money to get Gila; and sign Spinazzola on a free. One winger who doesn’t fit the scheme and a bunch of deadwood out, striker, DM, CB, LB in. Done.
Meant as a reply to NeighbourFromTheNorth1.
Sell all these players that the article mentioned, except modric. I bet, if leao was play yesterday game, i think milan only get 1 point… 😂
Acmilan should not start saelemakers instead athakame should start till finished but Acmilan should change somethings before next season like playing 4 defence like how other big teams are playing and also changing coach to get Vincenzo Italiano or farioli Francisco
