Tijjani Reijnders has completed his medical tests for Manchester City, as reported by Matteo Moretto and Fabrizio Romano, with only the official announcement missing now. 

Reijnders left the Dutch national team camp earlier this morning to travel to Manchester for his medical tests. According to Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moretto, the midfielder passed all of the tests and will soon be announced as a new Man City player.

As added by Moretto, the fixed base of the transfer is set at €57m, while there are an additional €14m in bonuses. €7m of these bonuses are easy to achieve, while the rest is a bit more difficult. As we have previously explained, the bonuses will help Milan strengthen the 2025-26 financial year.

Nevertheless, many Milan fans feel that the figures aren’t high enough for a midfielder who scored 15 goals last season, without taking penalties. Not to mention that the Etihad side were in a hurry to close a deal ahead of the Club World Cup.

Reijnders will be the second sale of the summer, following Pierre Kalulu’s permanent move to Juventus after the season-long loan. Marco Pellegrino is also one step away from joining Boca Juniors, so the Rossoneri are heading for a pretty big profit for the 2024-25 financial year.

  1. now i really hate milan..i dont know why im crying because of reijnders leaving milan…fuck you reijnders..

    1. What are you talking about it’s the management that wanted to sell him. They likely pushed him out

    1. Not right, Koopmeiners was way efficient than Tiji, better defensively, superior in term of shooting, and besides Tiji was his back up at Alkmaar, during his last season Koop had better stats than the Tiji one, borned in the same year, Reijnders only hit the top 1 season.

      1. He’s just a troll.
        Koopmeiners not close to Tiji’s level?

        Tiji must be some Rodri stuff here.

  2. Listen, tell me a midfielder that has been sold for 75m? Only one I can recall is when pogba was sold to man utd for over 100m.

    One does not simply turn down such an offer especially for a player who is great, but not world class. Especially at the age of 27.

    I wish him all the best because he was loyal and gave his all and I wanted him to remain but for that money I understand.

    This just goes to show too if anyone offers anything over 70m for leao sell him. If he wants to leave and the motivation he showed last year it’s time to give him up. We’ve been waiting 3 seasons now for him to turn world class and it hasn’t happened so he could go too. It all depends on how smartly we use this money and build a motivated actual team instead of careless individuals.

    1. This is the ideal, but with this management the ideal almost never happens. We’re more likely to get more Royals and Pavlovics than Buongiornos and Rovellas.

          1. If it is the Maldini management who had gotten Tiji, then they must be the same ones who had sold Tonali … But of course not. You will then say it’s Furlani who sold Tonali and Maldini who bought Tiji. I love how people cherry picked ‘facts’ to fit their narratives.

    2. Leao should go, push Theo up as left midfielder. No harm giving it a try. Theo in last year of contract, don’t sell. Seek a renewal of 2-3 years then sell at higher prices after world cup

    3. He’s not a world class (yet) because he plays in Milan. When he plays in a club like City, with all those players and coach, he’ll be one.

    4. “Listen, tell me a midfielder that has been sold for 75m? ”
      Caicedo, Rice, Grealish, Couthino, Havertz, Felix Enzo, Bellingham, Sancho ….???
      And it doesn’t look like we’re getting 70m for Tiji anyway. More like 65 or 60

  3. this issue isnt Tiji leaving for as little as previously reported, it is obviously a cascading of a few things all happening at the same time.

    A bad season for how good this team is on paper, coach fired and hired a coach who is seen as past his best, a SD that cannot be called the best in the league, before announcing Tiji is gone there is already concrete reports of many main stay players leaving and the reported replacements for everyone isnt encouraging.

    This is a lot of negative to take in just one go. But this is the worst things to hear about your club. So I am forcing myself to not drink the negativity around these things, even when I know it is all bad. I do that because no one knows how this team will look like at the end of the window.

    The only good thing isnt even going to bring tangible guarantees on the pitch and that is moving fast before the window is officially open to fire and hire a coach and restructure for a new SD. There are no tangible things I can see that has convinced me that I will see improvements and more than improvements excitement. This is just sad and depressing day after day.

  4. Don’t worry, they have shown they can sign talented players, except for Emerson Royal and Chuky.

    The purchase of Reijnders, Puli and a few others justifies their eye to spot talents.

    1. These bots XDDD. I wonder how much gerry paid for these guys. They are all over the comment on this sempre milan.

      Go support inter you tools.

    2. “The purchase of Reijnders, Puli and a few others justifies their eye to spot talents.”
      There are no few others, Reijnders and Pulišić are literally the ONLY 2 players that can be called decent out of a dozen players purchased.

      1. Ok sir, Reijnders and Pulisic’s success are as well relative.
        They could also pass for bad signings.

        The management never signed anyone good precisely.

  5. This is the problem when you finish 8th – you need a full rebuild (probably 3-4 core positions) and without CL money you need cash to do this rebuild. hopefully Leao and Puli don’t leave. We need a world class box to box DM and a RB and LB for sure.

  6. The problem with this is we aren’t replacing him and Modric is turning Milan down from what I’ve heard. So we couldn’t even get him for one season for cover.

    Terrible move! Terrible management!

  7. Forget about playing hard ball, folks… nowadays even fvckin’ Fenerbahce has more financial leverage than us… please God take me back to the 80s!

  8. From another site: “Reijnders completes Man City medical: ‘I couldn’t wait any longer’”

    Yeah. He really didn’t want to go and Milan pushed him out, right? 😀 😀 😀

    1. “I’m thrilled about it. This way I get to know my teammates straight away. I will be back in Zeist on Sunday evening. Then I will prepare for Tuesday’s game (with the Netherlands) against Malta.”

  9. Call me crazy but i dont see him as a player that need to be cry on, he’s not Kaka,Pirlo or Seedorf, what i regret was we’re not able to scammed City for more money for this guy, i swallow my own spit if he indeed prove me wrong and succeed greatly at City so we’ll see.

      1. Seedorf was such a fraud he won the UCL at 3 different clubs as the starting midfielder (hint heavy sarcasm in use). Please tell us you don’t know football without telling us…

  10. Leao, Theo, Mengian if they want to leave let them leaving better than losing them for free! Now is the time for big changes new coach etc! Keep 5 players and build with them! We need a new squad! They team will never win no one runs! Only Kalalu and Salmakers, Kessie, Tonali and Brahim Dias use to run! All others are super lazy! We keep laziness and sold the hardworking players! #cardinale out now!

  11. I swear these clowns in management can get bullied by anyone, not a single spine between all of them together. Imagine Napoli selling their best player for this money lol

  12. Hopeless management board. How could you sale Fiji for only €75m when they seems to be in a hurry. Again knowing his quality is not easy to come by ,why not be reluctant at at least €100m

  13. Sad to see Tiji go. Really liked him as a player. Frankly Milan management can’t seem to get out of their own way to put together a meaningful winning project, which it’s safe to say was probably never the plan to begin with – just status quo.

    Can’t blame Reijnders for not wanting to stick around and help the rebuild. Forced to leave, not forced to leave… doesn’t matter. He deserves an ambitious club with a winning project.

    Good Luck to him wherever he plays.

  14. Troll somewhere else. insulting Seedorf that got recognition from top players and you a donk*y worshipping a probably 1 season wonder like Tiji, come back and say it again when he can have a career like Seedorf.
