AC Milan raised Marcus Thuram's salary offer a few days ago. The Rossoneri increased their bid from 4 million euros plus bonuses to 5 million euros. It's a counteroffer aimed at sealing the deal, but it also demonstrates the strong desire of the Rossoneri to bring the 25-year-old French striker.
AC Milan is well aware that now is the time to press the accelerator pedal with all their might. The reason is threefold. Firstly, Paris Saint-Germain, which could push for higher wages, has not yet found a coach, and the choice of their primary striker will depend on who they hire.
Secondly, RB Leipzig seems to have shifted its focus to other targets after Thuram's lukewarm response to the German club's interest. The third reason, simple but not insignificant, is that no other team has put forward official offers. AC Milan could have an easy time today, but who knows about tomorrow? It's better not to take any risks, as relayed by Calciostyle.it.
