Milan make official offer to Ibrahimovic
AC Milan and Zlatan Ibrahimovic may soon have a part two. The return of the former Rossoneri striker is just a formality.
In January, also because of the numerous injuries that have literally decimated the Rossoneri squad, Milan will have to intervene heavily on the market. This time more than ever to make valuable repairs. A defender and a midfielder are the priorities, but also a striker. Because up front the choices are extremely limited. Higuain and Cutrone, that’s all! Gattuso needs at least one reinforcement, but of the highest quality. And according to Tuttosport, the strange “runoff” is between Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Alexandre Pato.
COUNTEROFFER – The Swedish giant is the great dream of the Rossoneri fans. The latest news illustrate a serene atmosphere between the Red and Black club and his agent. In fact Milan and Mino Raiola are in official negotiations and talks are in an advanced stage. The parties, reports Tuttosport, are studying the right formula of the operation.
The Rossoneri management have proposed a six-month contract with an option for another year linked to individual and team results. Raiola would like more guarantee on the eighteen months of contract and would have put forward a counter-proposal: renewal linked to results, but more easily reached. In short, the distance does not seem insurmountable. Regarding the salary of Ibrahimovic, there seem to be no problems, as Ibra earns “just” 4 million euros in USA.
PATO ALTERNATIVE – There have been contacts with Milan, but the Brazilian has a contract with Tianjin Quanjian until 31 December 2019. Pato currently awaits a renewal proposal from the Chinese club (which has not arrived yet). The striker may ask for the termination of his contract when he receives an official offer from AC Milan, but at the moment the Rossoneri seem to favor more the Ibrahimovic track.
