Longo: Milan had €17m agreement in place for Musah – the background

AC Milan has been linked with Valencia midfielder Yunus Musah quite a lot this summer and they are still interested in the American. According to a report, the Rossoneri nearly reached an agreement recently. 

Milan have completed the signing of Tijjani Reijnders, with just the medical and contract signing missing, but they still want one more midfielder. Musah appears to be the main target and the Rossonri are expected to try again.

According to Daniele Longo, Milan had an agreement in place with Valencia at €13m plus €4m in bonuses. Then, at the last second, Valencia’s president decided to ask for more money and the talks were put on hold.

Milan will have new talks with Valencia on Monday, per the journalist, and it remains to be seen if common ground can be found. It’s clear, however, that the Rossoneri are keen on signing the American before the window closes.
