Alessio Romagnoli was not impressed by AC Milan’s contract offer which included the notion of him taking a big pay cut, a report claims.
According to this morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews), the future of Alessio Romagnoli is still to be deciphered. His contract expires at the end of the season and there is nothing to suggest at the moment that an extension is imminent, with talks having seemingly stalled if anything.
Regarding the captain’s contract, the paper speaks of ‘uncertainties in the negotiations’ and that Milan are preparing for losing him in June, given that the offer made by the management – which included a pay cut – was not to his liking.
It is for this reason that directors Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are looking to reinforce the defence, which perhaps explains the links with signing a young defender this month and a long-term option in the summer like Sven Botman.
