AC Milan will keep an eye on an interesting friendly match today: Algeria - Tunisia. The game is important to follow for the Rossoneri management because, according to what is reported by Tuttomercatoweb.com, in the last few hours, a proposal has been delivered by the Rossoneri for Ellyes Skhiri.
The player in question is a strong Tunisian midfielder whose contract with Bundesliga team FC Koln expires at the end of the current month of June. He will be available on a free transfer soon. Elyes Skhiri is a mercato opportunity for different clubs in Europe. As per the source, AS Roma have also set their sights on the player. However, AC Milan's appeal is currently higher for Skhiri.
The offer from the Rossoneri management to the player is reportedly a three-year deal plus the option for a fourth with a salary set at 2 million euros net per season.
Tuttomercatoweb.com also claimed that Ellyes Skhiri received an offer also from Crystal Palace. The player has asked for some time to think about this in order to make a decision. On one hand, it is a dream for most footballers to paly in the Premier League, but on the other hand, AC Milan is an attractive destination. So the decision was postponed until his return from the Tunisia national team. Then there will be the inevitable holidays, but an answer is expected in the next few days.
Ellyes Skhiri is 28 years old. He is right-footed and has played 40 matches this season. He scored 8 goals and provided 1 assist across all competitions (Bundesliga, Conference League, UEFA Conference League qualifiers and the Domestic cup).
