The Milan he doesn’t want to give up Tijani Reijnders. In recent weeks the Dutchman has further raised the level and is proving to be one of the best performers in international football in the role. The assist provided to Rafael Leao in the match against Cagliari confirms the value of the former AZ Alkmaar player who, even with the Dutch national team, never lowered the quality of his performances. It is inevitable that for Reijnders many transfer sirens have started to sound with Gerry Cardinale’s club which has only one objective for him: to secure him and renew his contract.
Who’s on Reijnders
Manchester City, after Rodri’s injury, also put the Milan midfielder on their shortlist. Him like Samuele Ricci of Torino although the first name for Zubimendi of Real Sociedad. Reijnders is a profile that has many admirers across Europe: over the weeks he has been scouted by Real Madrid, Tottenham and Liverpool. Playmaker, midfielder, attacking midfielder, midfielder, raider, the Dutchman is the prototype of the player that many clubs around Europe are looking for to put at the center of their technical and tactical project. Milan included.
Renewal objective
Reijnders’ current contract expires in the summer of 2028 at €1.6 million per season. CEO Giorgio Furlani’s goal is to sit together with the Dutchman’s entourage on a double contract (over 3 million per year) until the summer of 2030. The matches against Real Madrid, Monza and Cagliari are the counter-proof of the value of the player who, moreover, is happy with his adventure at Milan as confirmed days ago by his brother at De Telegraaf in Holland. “It doesn’t happen often that a club wants to talk about a new contract after just one year, so it’s a special thing. It will give him even more confidence, because the club considers him a great player. Is Tijjani okay at Milan? Just look at the smile with he plays football. He gives everything, but he manages to have fun during the matches. This is also a credit to the team, who have taken care of him from the start.”
