CorSport: Jorge Mendes puts Milan in a difficult situation over two negotiations

AC Milan are treading a fine line with agent Jorge Mendes as they are trying to carefully negotiate two different deals, a report claims.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport (via SempreMilan.it), Jorge Mendes is the man who is at the centre of two important negotiations for Milan’s future, and one could influence the other in terms of relations between the parties.

The first involves Renato Sanches, a midfielder who dreams of playing for PSG and is asking for a salary that reflects his ambitions. Before being able to accelerate, the Ligue 1 champions must first thin out the squad by making some sales.

Mendes is also involved in a negotiation with the Rossoneri over the renewal of Rafael Leao, but the requests over the salary for both players is worrying Milan. The demand for Sanches is €5.5m net per season, and Mendes wants Leao to be paid €7m as a reflection of his status.
