There are decisions to weigh up this summer, and AC Milan are considering playing difficulty when it comes to Tijjani Reijnders.
In recent weeks, there has been an overwhelming feeling of dread for Reijnders’ future, considering the interest from Manchester City. However, there could now be signs of a fightback from Milan.
Rather than allow the Citizens’ inevitability to overcome the club, the Rossoneri could play the game themselves, rather than rolling over. A first offer is expected this week, and it should be in the region of €50 million, way below the asking price.
According to Corriere della Sera, via Milan Press, this offer will be sent to test the waters. From there, then, the Diavolo must start their plan. The reaction to this offer must be enough for the club to raise their offer significantly.
In fact, the perfect idea could be to refuse the first offer, leaving the Manchester outfit with the opportunity to come back with a ‘much higher’ offer, or allow the Dutchman to stay.
Of course, Giorgio Furlani stated this weekend that sales are not mandatory; however, if money does have to be made, there are a surplus of players whose futures are not attached to the Diavolo project. For example, Theo Hernandez, Malick Thiaw and Yunus Musah.
