The Milan management are hoping to get the renewal of at least three key players done during the summer transfer window, according to a report.
Starting with Rafael Leao, MilanNews confirms that the demands of the Portuguese winger through his agent Jorge Mendes have gone up after a fantastic season in which he helped lead Milan to the Scudetto.
Leao wants to be paid the same as Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic which is around €7m net per season, so Milan’s first offer of €4.5m per year must be raised, though the management feel he is the player on which they should make the sacrifice to break their internal wage ceiling.
Ismael Bennacer asked for time after finding a basic agreement in the spring over a renewal, because the new ownership arrived and players starting thinking they could get more money with a new owner in charge.
There will be new updates between the parties at the end of the month, just as there will be with Pierre Kalulu with whom the goal is to renew and significantly raise the salary to €2m net per season.
