De Telegraaf: Reijnders to snub Man City and Barcelona for Milan renewal – the details | OneFootball

AC Milan will soon be able to announce a crucial renewal as an agreement with Tijjani Reijnders has been reached, a report claims.

In recent months, Manchester City and Barcelona have been linked with a move for Reijnders given how impressive his season has been, but De Telegraaf in the Netherlands report that he will commit his future to Milan.

They cite sources close to the club in stating that a renewal is close, adding that lawyers are now working draft up the agreement that was reached between the father-agent of the midfielder and the directors.

Reijnders, who arrived at the Rossoneri in the summer of 2023 from AZ Alkmaar for €20.5m, is expected to sign his new contract at the beginning of March, which will make him one of the highest paid players in the Milan squad.

The negotiations to reach this agreement took time, there were several conversations and a long exchange of emails, but in the end the handshake arrived. The deal will run until 2030, which is a two-year extension.

Since he arrived at the club, Reijnders has grown into an undroppable player both for Milan and his national team. There will be no release clause in his new deal, the report adds, so any interested club would have to put forward a huge offer in theory.
