AC Milan are getting ready to make AS Monaco a new offer for French midfielder Youssouf Fofana but the Rossoneri do not want to go above the €20m mark.
As reported by Tuttosport (via Milan News), the Rossoneri are not giving up on Fofana given he wants to make the move and there is a belief that he would instantly raise the level of the midfield and help to give the defence more support.
Milan are determined not to sign Fofana for more than €20m, which is an issue given Monaco have been sticking to their valuation of €35m.
Given he has one year left on his contract, Milan think that valuation is way off the mark but Monaco have been sticking to it given they are unhappy with Milan agreeing on personal terms with the player before speaking to the club.
Milan’s last offer was €17m in total and it was rejected, so the increase from the Rossoneri is not expected to be drastic.
Milan hope that Monaco will eventually soften on their stance given they will lose the player for free if he does not leave this summer and he has made it clear that he wants to move to Milan this summer.
