DBasia.news – Reportedly, AC Milan have reached an agreement with Nicolo Zaniolo. Currently, the Rossoneri only have to convince AS Roma, the owner of Zaniolo.
Milan are eyein the opportunity to sign Nicolo Zaniolo in the middle of this season. Roma reportedly want to let go of the player from Italy.
Roma brought in Zaniolo from Inter Milan in the summer of 2018. At that time, Zaniolo was part of Radja Nainggolan’s transfer. Zaniolo is valued at €4.5 million.
Unfortunately, Zaniolo never achieved stability in playing. He has been injured which forced him to miss a long period of time. So far, Zaniolo has only played 128 times with a record of 24 goals and 18 assists.
Therefore, Roma are open to releasing Zaniolo in the middle of this season. Moreover, the contract extension process with the 23-year-old midfielder also did not progress.
AC Milan, who knew Zaniolo was in Roma’s list, tried to take advantage of the situation. Milan seduced Zaniolo to join.
According to Nicolo Schira’s report, Zaniolo is interested in Milan’s offer. He will be contracted until 2027 and will receive €3.5 million per season plus bonuses.
Now, Milan’s job is to convince Rome as Roma are determined to only release Zaniolo permanently with a dowry of €30 million. This amount is too expensive for Milan. Apart from that, the Rossoneri also want the agreement to be on loan first.
Milan is racing against time to close the deal as the winter transfer market will be over in a few days.
