Speaking during an interview with Radio Rai (via Milan Eye), the CEO explained that there has not actually been any contact between him and AC Milan for Frattesi so far.
As well as that, he explained that they are more than willing to listen to offers and he thinks that speed will be rewarded, suggesting Milan may need to act fast to get Frattesi into the team.
“Personally I have never met Milan [for Frattesi] but if other teams come to discuss with us we are ready to listen to them. I think who arrives first have more chances to close the deal. Our request remains €40M,” Carnevali said.
Milan have got the economic capacity to make the deal happen very quickly now that they are selling Sandro Tonali to Newcastle, but there are reservations about paying a €40 million fee for Frattesi.
The Rossoneri could try and barter Sassuolo down to a lower price, or they may include either Daniel Maldini or Lorenzo Colombo in the deal.
