The coming months for Daniel Maldini will certainly be interesting, not only on the field where he will continue to vie for minutes and opportunities with Raffaele Palladino's Monza, but also and above all off the green rectangle as he will be called upon to make several decisions that could influence his career. He will have to choose between staying at Monza or returning to AC Milan, but also it seems that the Venezuela national team wants him as well.
Father Paolo Maldini is indeed an icon of Italy. Daniel Maldini has also represented Italy's U20 national team in the past back in 2021. And so, in this gap, as reported by Tuttosport, Venezuela is trying to insert itself by exploiting the nationality of his mother Adriana Fossa, who is originally from the South American country.
There is a strong possibility that the Vinotinto Selection will qualify for the next World Cup in Mexico-USA-Canada, and having a face like Daniel Maldini's would also help the national team in terms of international image, at a particularly delicate political moment for the country.
Although the choice regarding the national team seems to be leaning towards Italy, Daniel will be called upon next summer to make as definitive a choice as possible about his future and his relationship with Milan, which, at least for the moment, does not have a first-team staying project in sight for him. The loan to Monza will expire at the end of the season and Adriano Galliani, long tied to both his agent Beppe Riso and obviously to father Paolo, is working to redeem his contract and keep him permanently in Monza.
His contract with the Rossoneri expires on June 30, 2025, and the valuation is 4-5 million euros. For Daniel Maldini, both on the national team and club fronts, it's time to make choices, as told by Calciomercato.com.
