Alessio Romagnoli, AC Milan's captain has a tricky situation right now. Since the arrival of Fikayo Tomori, he has been relegated to sitting on the bench.
The Italian centre-back's contract is set to expire at the end of the next season and a contract renewal is in the balance.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport in today's edition, Romagnoli has a significant salary within the club and the management has a clear and firm position regarding this matter: they do not want to invest more money in the player and pay him a bigger salary to extend his contract.
On the other hand, they do consider him an important player, however, and would be willing to keep him in the squad because he will be a very good rotation option in the new season.
