The negotiations for De Ketelaere are advanced. But the definitive agreement has not been found by AC Milan yet.
According to Alexandre Braeckman, an offer of 35 million euros with bonuses included has been put on the table for Club Brugge. There is no agreement just yet but a definitive rejection is also not there. Ideally, the Belgian champions just want 35 million euros full in cash as a fixed transfer fee.
For AC Milan's part, however, the managers are really convinced that they can reach an agreement. Club Brugge are now under pressure because Charles De Ketelaere himself has made his choice and only sees the Rossoneri for himself. The source explains that the two clubs are in the last details with no definitive agreement reached just yet.
Club Brugge want only 35 million euros in cash with no bonuses and do not want the offers which Milan are suggesting: 31, 32 or 33 million euros with bonuses to reach 35. They only want 35 million euros on the table in cash, nothing else. This is the point of negotiation between AC Milan and Club Brugge.
Pour préciser: Bruges préfèrerait 35M cash sans bonus que, par exemple, 31, 32 ou 33M + bonus qui arriveraient à 35M au total. Ils veulent 35M garantis. C'est, pour le moment, le point qui se négocie entre les parties. #Mercato #AcMilan #DeKetelaere
