It’s still not official, but Milan and its fans can already celebrate what can be considered the first strike of the 2023 summer transfer window.
On Friday, after the end of the training session, Rafael Leao will appear at Casa Milan to sign the contract renewal. After a soap opera of several months, finally white smoke.
The Portuguese forward will sign, until June 2028, with a salary of 5 million euros net, plus bonuses, per season and a release clause of 175 million euros.
The Milan club has decided to formalize the renewal of the contract with one of the most important players just two days before the match with Juventus, where the “reds” will try to win to mathematically ensure participation in the Champions League next season.
Afterwards, the leaders of Milan will focus on the market, where Maldini and Massara will have available to spend around 100 million euros. The managers will try to avoid the mistakes made last year, since in Italy the summer market of Milan has been described as a failure.
All the summer arrivals, Dest, Adli, Vranckx and Origi, are on the way out, while Charles De Katelere’s future remains in question.
According to the Italian media, Maldini and Massara will try to bring in at least seven players, to meet the organic needs of coach Stefano Pioli.
