Milan will require at least €100 million to renew contracts for six players.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan will need at least €100 million to extend six players’ contracts, including Theo Hernandez and Mike Maignan. Only two Milan players, Luka Jovic and Simon Kjaer, have contracts that expire in June, with Olivier Giroud poised to join LAFC in the summer, but club directors are also looking at deals that will expire in 2025 and 2026.
They include Alessandro Florenzi and Davide Calabria (2025), Yacine Adli, Matteo Gabbia, Theo, and Maignan (2026). According to Gazzetta, continuing with Adli and Gabbia will be simple, whereas Calabria will most certainly demand a pay increase. The Rosssoneri skipper presently earns €2.2 million each season. However, the Serie A giants’ top objective remains negotiating an arrangement with Theo and Maignan. Both France talents have sparked interest from big clubs around Europe, thus Milan’s directors are eager to meet with them to discuss a new contract.
According to Gazzetta, Milan will have to offer both players a new four-year deal costing €5.5 million to €6 million, with a net cost of at least €80 million. This implies Milan will require more than €100 million to renew contracts with Theo, Maignan, and the remaining four players. Regarding Maignan, some sources in Italy believe the ex-Lille goalkeeper will demand an even greater pay, likely in the area of €8 million each season.
