Ibrahimovic – Donnarumma (Lapresse)
Ibrahimovic-Milan renewal very close for Zlatan
Zlatan Ibrahimovic it is close to renewal with the Milan. Se per Donnarumma the white smoke still does not seem announced (see below), the Swedish striker and the Rossoneri club are one step away from the announcement. The official will arrive shortly: contract as at 30 June 2022 with a total of 7 million in salary (reachable with bonuses). Then, the Devil will have to do the math and decide how to set up next season’s attack around Ibra. Discounted confirmation of Ante Rebic, probable that of Rafael Leao (but beware of intertwining or market exchanges that could change valuations), all to decipher the future of Mario Mandzukic. Theoretically there should be renewal with the qualification in Champions League (which Milan has yet to win in a sprint against Juventus, Atalanta, Napoli and Lazio: 3 places for 5 teams), but the Croatian will have to give signals in the last eight league games starting on Sunday against Genoa when he will be available for Stefano Pioli and should have a chance in a match that will see the Rossoneri orphans of Ibrahimovic after the disqualification for the scoresheet Maresca post Parma. Meanwhile, the name of is always very hot Dusan Vlahovic (with the Rooster Belotti in the second row and courted by the Lyon looking around in search of the heir of Depay: the Dutch is destined for Barcelona).
Donnarumma-Milan, 100 million for the renewal of Gigio
The Juventus in the future of Gianluigi Donnarumma? Until the signature for the renewal of the contract with the Milan (expiring June 30th) all possibilities remain open. The feeling is that it is unlikely a breakup that will lead the Rossoneri goalkeeper to leave the club that raised him and in which he has been playing for ten years on a free transfer. On Gigio’s table there is an important offer from the Devil: 8 million net for five years. An investment from 80-100 million euros (between gross salary and commissions) for Milan on a player whom they consider a symbol. And the white smoke hasn’t arrived yet. Beyond the figures, as is known, Mino Raiola he would prefer to take a shorter commitment (a couple of years), also to try to understand what football will be like in the medium term, when everyone expects an economic recovery after the crisis due to the covid pandemic. And the Juventus? The bianconeri are at the window.
Donnarumma-Juventus? Intertwining with Szczesny
Of a Juventus interest for Donnarumma we have been talking for years. Invest 10-12 million net with Gigio it may not be a gamble, but on one condition: see Szczesny. Collecting about twenty million net from his card and obviously saving on the salary of the Polish goalkeeper (who takes 6.5) could make an important investment, but on a goalkeeper who represents the future of world football. A bit like it happened in its time with Gigi Buffon when he arrived at 23 from Parma (Donnarumma is 22 now). The problem is that in a market still blocked due to the crisis, at the moment there are no offers for Szczesny. For all these reasons, at the moment Donnarumma at Juve remains more of a suggestion, many pieces should fit together to make up the puzzle.
Donnarumma-Milan, unknown about the duration of the renewal
E Gigio it will more likely still remain al Milan (with all the unknowns on the renewal duration agreement mentioned above). The PSG? At the moment Parisians are covered with Keylor Navas (contract until 2023): Leonardo is a great admirer of Donnarumma, but the speech of the Juventus, first a buyer would have to be found for the current keeper. Or wait a couple of years, when the astral conjunctions of the market will be better …
