AC Milan want to keep Franck Kessié within the squad for the coach Stefano Pioli because the player is very important to the Italian technician's plan and has proved that he is one of the best central midfielders right now in Serie A and even in Europe.
The Rossoneri management does not want to repeat the experience of Hakan Calhanoglu and Gianluigi Donnarumma who left for free to Inter and PSG respectively.
The plan is to satisfy the requests of the Ivorian whose contract expires in June 2022.
Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara are getting close to a 6 million euros offer as net salary per season. However, La Gazzetta dello Sport explains that the player would like a higher a figure, 'à la Ibrahimovic', meaning salary along the lines to the figures of Zlatan, or somewhere around 7 million euros.
For their part, Milan are working hard to close the gap and do not intent on losing their star midfielder. There will soon be a meeting with the agent. The Rossoneri directors are thinking of a medium-length renewal until 2024, and not a long-term one.
