When the first rumours emerged about negotiations between Milan and Napoli for the transfer of Yunus Musah, it seemed that a swift deal could be arranged between the two clubs and that the American midfielder would soon be officially announced as a new player for coach Antonio Conte’s team.

Now, however, the situation seems a bit more difficult than anticipated. In fact, as per Fabrizio Romano's latest updates on his YouTube channel, the negotiations are currently blocked.
Blocked in the literal sense of being stalled. The obstacle preventing a handshake between the two clubs is the agreement on bonuses. There are issues regarding both the amount and the nature of these bonuses: whether they should be considered easy or difficult to achieve. It might seem like a minor detail, but, as Fabrizio Romano confirms, it is a significant and substantial part of the deal. The agreement between Musah and Napoli, on the other hand, has been in place for days: the American can transfer once the executives of the two clubs find common ground on the bonus issue, as relayed via Milannews.it.
