Hakan Calhanoglu’s contract will expire at the end of the season and Milan are currently negotiating with his agent, Gordon Stipic, over a renewal. However, it has turned out to be difficult as the No.10 wants a big pay rise.
The Turkish midfielder has asked for his new deal to be worth around €5m, which is double what he currently earns. Milan, on the other hand, have gone as far as €4m and maybe €4.5m in the negotiations, meaning there is still distance.

On Twitter, we sent out questions about four topics including Calhanoglu’s contract renewal. Has Calhanoglu earned a big pay rise, we asked, and the answers were pretty unanimous on the matter as Milan are looking to lower the wage bill.
‘Not a big one imo’, one fan wrote, followed by ‘he’s too inconsistent’ from another fan. Some said that ‘Hakan deserves a pay rise’, but as said the answers seemed to agree that the Rossoneri can’t offer him too much in the negotiations.

1.yes, even though hes in a dip Atm Hakan has proven to be a very important player.
2. I would keep Meite and let Dallot return
With CL on the horizon we would need that extra power in midfield.
3. Letting Tomori to back to Chelsea would be the dumbest thing this club has done I’m years. WE MUST KEEP HIM.
4. I have not seen enough to judge Otavio
