Daniel Maldini didn’t let emotions get the best of him against a piece of his family and professional history, Milan. He came close to scoring by mere centimeters and showcased many high-quality plays as the new forward for the Italian national team as well.
Monza didn’t gain any points in the standings, but they did come away with the confidence that they have the tools to secure their spot in the top division.
Confirming what Sky reported last night: Maldini’s contract with Monza includes two release clauses. For foreign clubs, the clause is approximately 15 million euros, while for Italian clubs, it’s set at 12 million euros. Milan retained 50% of any future resale profit when they let him go to Monza at no cost.
According to sources at Calciomercato.com, Daniel Maldini wants to stay a key player in the Serie A, a priority he made clear last summer.
Daniel Maldini’s progress has caught the attention of some clubs already
Juventus are interested in Daniel Maldini and have made initial contacts with the player's agent, Giuseppe Riso. Atalanta, however, seems to be the most likely destination for the young talent, with fairly advanced talks with Monza to pay the release clause.
It remains to be seen if this will happen as soon as January or next summer, depending on Monza’s standing needs. For Milan, this could become a repeat of the Brescianini deal, bringing in 6 million euros.
