Sportitalia: Milan to present improved offer to AZ Alkmaar for Reijnders

AC Milan are accelerating to try and close the signing of Tijjani Reijnders and they have a new and improved offer ready, a report claims.

According to the latest from Sportitalia, Milan were ‘called upon’ to push down on the accelerator pedal to try and close the signing of Reijnders before the start of preseason and they have answered the call.

The direct contacts between the clubs in the last few hours have hinted at the Rossoneri’s willingness to present an increased proposal compared to the last one, which was €19m including bonuses.

The Rossoneri management will raise their offer to €21m including bonuses, thus approaching the request of AZ Alkmaar which is €25m.

The ball passes to the Eredivisie club once the proposal has been made official, while the player has already verbally agreed personal terms.

The temperature of this deal is heating up as per the report, and some teams in the Premier League are watching with interest without having yet presented any formal proposal.
