Milan have finalised a contract agreement with Youssouf Fofana and will soon present a new offer to Monaco for the midfielder.
The Rossoneri have been seriously targeting the 25-year-old French midfielder for a number of weeks now, believing him to be the perfect reinforcement for Paulo Fonseca’s squad. A number of clubs are also interested in the player, including Manchester United and Atletico Madrid.
Milan already agreed to the rough terms of a contract with Fofana a fortnight ago, willing to offer a four-year contract with an option for a fifth worth around €3m net per season plus €500,000 in add-ons, a €1m raise compared to his current terms at Monaco.
Milan step forward for Fofana
Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com details how Milan have now defined every detail of their contract agreement with Fofana, ready to pull the trigger on a deal with Monaco.
The Rossoneri’s initial €12m plus add-ons offer was rejected by the Ligue 1 side and they’re preparing to send in a new proposal closer to €20m.
