DBasia.news – AC Milan’s two stars, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Gianluigi Donnarumma are said to be extending their contracts with the Rossoneri soon.
Milan look mighty since the competition rolled back in the pandemic. Inter Milan city rivals have not been beaten until now.
It affects their position in the standings. Got thrown from the top ten, Milan is now in the Europa League zone with sixth place.
Donnarumma and Ibrahimovic, who were reported to be leaving, have changed their minds. They are ready to last longer at the San Siro.
“Donnarumma and Ibrahimovic are eager to survive next season. They are even willing to accept salary cuts to make it happen,” writes La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Apart from the rapidly improving team performance, Stefano Pioli’s defense in the coach’s seat also played an important role in the contract extension of the two Milan stars. Previously, Ralf Rangnick was appointed as Rossoneri coach next season even though it was eventually canceled.
Donnarumma’s old contract will expire next year. While the partnership with Ibrahimovic is completed at the end of this season.
Ibrahimovic was offered a contract extension for one year. But there is a clause that will appoint him ambassador of the club after retiring.
Donnarumma will also only receive a contract extension for one year. The goalkeeper, who just played his 200th match with Milan, could also leave if he failed to qualify for the Champions League.
