PM: Milan monitoring situation surrounding Lingard – his salary demands

AC Milan are keeping an eye on the situation surrounding Manchester United playmaker Jesse Lingard ahead of the summer, a report claims.

Brahim Diaz’s struggles this season plus the fact that Yacine Adli is very much a versatile player means that Milan are in the market for a new player who can play in the trident behind the centre-forward, and PianetaMilan report that one of the most interesting names from a Milan perspective is certainly that of Lingard.

The 29-year-old Manchester United forward will leave the Red Devils when his contract expires on June 30th, because they do not seem willing to propose a renewal at the moment.

The Rossoneri management are monitoring the situation, and they view the England international as a potentially important signing considering the undoubted qualities of the player, who shone on loan at West Ham last season.

Lingard meanwhile would be satisfied with a salary of around €4m net per season which could further simplify the operation. He was recently snapped alongside Zlatan Ibrahimovic in Milano amid rumours he has been offered to Milan.
