Besides Franck Kessie, there are also Davide Calabria and Alessio Romagnoli with contracts expiring in June 2022. Milan aim to extend their deals in the coming months, avoiding taking too long with the negotiations.
These are important players for Stefano Pioli's team and have a market demand both in Italy and abroad. It is important to be able to secure them as soon as possible, even if their intention is to remain in the Rossoneri shirt has already been expressed which does represent a good starting point for Milan.
Today La Gazzetta dello Sport explains that AC Milan are willing to raise the salary of Calabria to around 2 million euros net per season. Currently the full-back receives about 1.2 million euros. At the end of the season, the parties discussed will sit at the table to discuss it.
The player's performance is excellent and the club absolutely intends to renew his contract. Davide himself wants to stay and the feeling is that an agreement will come.
As for captain Alessio Romagnoli, it is a slightly more complicated situation on the renewal matter. He already earns a high wage by Milan's standards which is 3.5 million euros per year. The newspaper writes that it is difficult to deal on this front because his agent is agent Mino Raiola. However, the club intends to offer the same salary. It remains to be seen if the player and his entourage would accept or not.
