Tijjani Reijnders is in excellent form, having scored four goals in the last four matches he played for Milan (a brace against Club Brugge and goals against Monza and Real Madrid). The Dutchman was also one of the most upset and disappointed after the 3-3 draw against Cagliari: "It’s unacceptable, as Milan, to concede three identical goals; it’s just not acceptable for us."
Interest from abroad in the AC Milan player Tijjani Reijnders
Against the Cagliari team, he didn’t score, but he provided a wonderful assist for Rafael Leao’s first goal. It’s undeniable that Reijnders has been one of Milan's best players in this first part of the season, alongside Christian Pulisic, and his high-level performances are attracting the attention of top English clubs, including Manchester City.
This is reported by Tuttosport, which adds that Milan, as confirmed by the father-agent of the former AZ Alkmaar player, is already in talks to extend his contract until 2030 with a significant salary increase (from the current 1.7 million euros to 3.5 million euros per season).
The extension seems to be in the process of being finalised, as relayed via Milannews.it and therefore the signing is expected soon.
Milan - Reijnders, a deserved renewal
The renewal is absolutely deserved, but the Rossoneri club must watch out for interest from other clubs. The Dutchman staying at the club is not a guarantee. A big offer could arrive (like what happened with Sandro Tonali), which would force the club to at least consider making the transfer happen.
Another reason is related to the competitiveness of the club: without a competitive team and in the Champions League, the Dutch midfielder, who will turn 27 on July 29 and has won nothing in his career so far, might consider moving elsewhere to lift trophies. Because Milan is always Milan, but beyond the name, competitiveness is also necessary.
