Milan midfielder Franck Kessie has revealed he wants to stay at the Rossoneri ‘for life’ and the managers will reportedly meet with his agent this week to close a deal.
The Ivory Coast international will return to Milanello after the Olympics and revealed during the retreat in Tokyo that he intends to renew with the Diavolo.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reports the 24-year-old’s agent will meet with Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara to complete the negotiations that seem to have already been concluded.
The newspaper claims the Rossoneri are willing to offer Kessie €6m a season to renew with two years.
The short deal will at least take the Diavolo out of the dangerous waters of another farewell for free, after losing both Gigio Donnarumma and Hakan Calhanoglu as free agents this summer.
Kessie arrived at Milan in July 2017 and has since played 184 competitive games, scoring 30 goals and contributing 15 assists in the process.
