Rumours in Portugal are that Renato Sanches is on the way to Milan.
I call bullshit. Only way that happens is if Kessie is already out the door.
I am disappointed with the recent development with Kessie. I remember him promising while he was at Tokyo attending Olympics that he would personally sort everything out when he returned. Perhaps things have changed since then, or, maybe, just maybe, his understanding of 'sorting everything out' was just different from ours.
I would take a Milan without Kessie with solace, though I reckon his extreme importance. Milan is still Milan, and no player is bigger than the team.
A new hypothesis has emerged regarding the future of Andrea Conti as he could now see his contract terminated, according to a report.
According to the latest from Tuttosport (via MilanLive), the defender was being touted for a potential return to Atalanta but they have instead opted to go for Davide Zappacosta, who officially arrived from Chelsea.
Cagliari and Genoa are both looking for reinforcements for the right defensive lane and could seriously think about Conti, while to facilitate such a possibility the paper claims that a mutual termination of his contract is not to be excluded.
The. Worst. Sellers. In. The. World.
Kessie is on the way out of Milan. That's why the rumours on Renato Sanchez are gaining ground and becoming more intense with time passing by.
Its actually sad. I was hoping that an agreement would be reached. Kessie was asking for 7 we were giving 4. I sincerely thought 5.5 plus some bonuses would cut it. Disappointing really.
Losing Kessie is the definition of short sighted, it is also not comparable to Hakan or Donnarumma . Unless Sanches or same quality arrives in his place it will not save Elliott any money down the road either. Even paying him 7 million can not possibly be a bigger FFP problem than finding a replacement, of course if the replacement is me (lol) it will save money but with me instead of Kessie top 4 chances drop by a lot, so it will still cost down the road.
