Hakan Çalhanoğlu’s contract at AC Milan will run out in June 2021 and the Serie A side have been working to secure his future beyond this season.
On October 28th, we carried a report from Gazzetta dello Sport, who explained Manchester United are willing to offer a five-year contract for the 26-year-old to join the Red Devils on a free transfer.
Calciomercato has a report on the playmaker with ‘the truth about Manchester United’ mentioned in the title.
According to the report, there has been ‘a lot of talk’ about an ongoing negotiation with the Old Trafford club and a ‘not too distant’ agreement with them. However, sources close to the Turkey international ‘deny the existence of a real negotiation’.
Çalhanoğlu feels ‘pampered, well-liked and important: factors that make the difference for a very sensitive player like him’. The midfielder has assured his teammates and managers about his desire to continue at the San Siro.
The ex-Bayer Leverkusen star currently earns a net salary of €2.5m per year and he expects Milan to offer an improved deal to commit his future to the club.
The player expects his wages to be doubled, but is willing to have constructive talks, taking into consideration the ‘difficult moment that the whole world of football is going through due to the pandemic’.
Milan’s idea is to offer Çalhanoğlu a contract until 2024 and he is also willing to extend if there’s an improved offer.
