Krunic has been an important player at the start of the season, although currently recovering from a muscle injury. He should be back for the game against Juventus, though, and is poised to play from the first minute.
According to Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com, the renewal talks have begun but Milan were ‘surprised’ to hear that the midfielder wants €3m per year. Given that he currently earns €1.1m per year, the Rossoneri are willing to offer him €2m plus €500k in bonuses.
At the age of 30, Krunic is no longer young and Milan don’t want him on a high salary for two-three more years. The negotiations, however, are indeed young and there will be time to find a compromise.
In the meantime, Krunic is working hard to back in good condition for the clash against Juventus.
