Summer mercato 2021

[hwmook]

Can you guys imagine what kind of wage Mbappe will demand if he joins a team for free? 40m per year? 50m? 80m sign on bonus? 100m? Florentino Perez, free advice for you, go for Haaland instead. lol

Look guys, these are the kind of players that are playing the games now. They will refuse to sign renewal unless they get the high pay they want.

From an economical perspective it's a smart thing for a player to do. It means clubs will have to compete on who pays the player/agent the most instead of competing on who pays the highest transfer fees.

Moving from a club to another often means getting a higher salary. With no transfer fee involved, the clubs have even more to spend on salaries and fees (sign-on, agent and so on).

If you have no emotional attachment to your club like most players don't have these days, then it's easy.

It will happen more and more often I guess.

We are dealing with different kind of players these days. Loyalty is a different concept for them. Agents also have played a major role in distancing the players from the club, I mean, If someone like Donnaruma, was given a shot at 16 and he still treated us like he did, and please do not forget the first round of negotiations when he was barely 19. This Mbappe thing is even worse, they paid 120 million euros for him to lose him for free.

According to the latest from MilanNews, Hauge faces a rather uncertain fate at Milan. The Norwegian winger arrived almost a year ago from Bodo/Glimt for €5m and is awaiting a meeting with the management to see what their plans are for his future.

However, the signs are not good as Pioli’s choices were clear: there is no room for him when he already has Ante Rebic and Rafael Leao to alternate and manage. After not even 365 days with the Rossoneri, Hauge could be sold this summer in the face of the right offer, with Milan insistent on making a capital gain.

AC Milan have a concrete interest in signing Mikkel Damsgaard and they could include a counterpart to lower the cost, according to a report.

As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews), Milan have set their sights on Damsgaard, who is showing his abilities at the European Championships with Denmark. He is attracting admiring glances from Milan because of his ability to play three different roles in Stefano Pioli’s 4-2-3-1, namely on either wing or as a number 10.

What's the point of signing another Hauge?

Won't get any games and wil be shipped off next year when journeyman Pioli who has never won anything favours Krunic & Castillejo.

There is this worldwide refusal to sell Hauge, Milan should at least consider the PR aspect and keep the boy.

La Gazzetta: Tonali was called to prepare for the Brescia club new season, but the player refused to return because Milan is close to buying him permanently.

I would give PSG the advice to sell him ASAP and to buy Haaland 

[Rossonero21]

And the same advice goes to our management as far as Kessie is concerned. He does not renew, sell him and invest in Tonali and Pessina

AC Milan have finally found a full agreement with Brescia over Sandro Tonali’s permanent signing, according to a report.

SportMediaset (via MilanLive) writes that Brescia president Massimo Cellino has accepted the latest proposal from the Rossoneri, which is as follows: €10m in cash (bonuses excluded) plus Giacomo Olzer as a counterpart. The Primavera player has gladly accepted the idea of a move to Serie B on a permanent basis as part of the operation.

Another homegrown youngster bites the dust. No mention of buyback or sell on fees either.
