The young Italian talent continues to impress in the Rossoneri shirt, and the management are already looking into a contract extension.
In a Milan side that returned to winning ways following their European defeat against the Hungarians of Ferencváros, Alphadjo Cisse left an indelible mark. The Italian talent, born in 2006, continues to impress during this early part of the season, where he is showcasing all his abilities and potential.
Even in the victory against De Rossi's Genoa, the very young player, who was called up by Italy head coach Roberto Mancini for this international break and the upcoming fixtures against France and Belgium, made his mark with the opening goal, assisted by Adrien Rabiot.
A goal that brought Cisse into a very exclusive club.
Only Lamine Yamal ahead of Alphadjo Cisse...
As reported by Opta, Alphadjo Cisse is one of only three players born in 2006 or later to have scored eight or more goals across Europe's top five leagues (Serie A, Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga and Ligue 1), considering all competitions played so far this season.
The other two? Monaco's Paris Brunner (with eight) and Barcelona phenomenon Lamine Yamal, who is already on 13.
AC Milan - Cisse: Renewal talks underway...
Milan are enjoying the breakthrough of the 2006-born talent, who was signed from Verona and left on loan at Catanzaro last season, and who is becoming, day after day, one of the most important players in Ruben Amorim's entire squad, as relayed via Calcio Mercato today.
Cisse has a contract secured until 30 June 2026, but the club managers have already taken into account the possibility of negotiating an extension to his current agreement and an improvement to his salary.
As also reported by Fabrizio Romano in a video on his Italian-language YouTube channel, Cisse's contract is one of those being monitored. There is no rush, given how far away the expiry date is, but Milan want to begin opening a dialogue to reach a renewal and agree on a new expiry date that would tie down the Italian talent even more firmly, with head coach Mancini also intending to count on him from now on.
