AC Milan have made the decision to sell Daniel Maldini and they have agreed a deal with Monza meaning he will return there, according to a report.
Maldini went on loan to Empoli last season until January and then went to Monza where he did much better, scoring four goals in 11 appearances, and despite impressing in the first preseason friendly it has always been reported that he is free to leave.
According to TMW, Maldini is heading back to Monza but this time permanently. In recent days their CEO Adriano Galliani closed the agreement with Milan and he will soon undergo a medical there before signing his contract.
The 22-year-old will head to the U-Power Stadium for an ‘almost minimal’ fee, but Milan however will be able to count on a generous resale clause. More specifically, they will pocket 50% of any money that Monza get if and when they sell him.
There will of course be an added emotional aspect to his departure given the weight his surname carries, but Maldini is at an age where he needs regular starts. Milan meanwhile have plenty of options on both wings and in the playmaker spot, meaning he would remain on the fringes.
Terrible decision.
Right decision for Maldini. Milan won’t use him. SO it’s right to offload the kid and wish him luck.
Buyback clause?
You never know.
50% sell on clause is almost as good as a buy back (some say better).
If he improves a lot and Monza look to cash out for €30mn, for us that means we can buy him for €15mn.
And if we’re not interested in repurchasing , then someone else can buy him for €30mn giving us €15mn profit.
It’s an OK deal all round as it suits all parties, Maldini jnr gets to play, we sell a fringe squad player and Monza signs someone they can use in their first team.
Watch him score more goals than Morata.
Before talking more goals than Morata make sure he play as stater first
This boy made a mistake in his choice of position.
Should have learnt the trade as a LB and become a sub for theo
