Milan meet Theo Hernandez’s agent and prepare for triple contract extension – report

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan are confident of extending with Mike Maignan, Matteo Gabbia and Theo Hernandez and met the French defender’s agent in Madrid last week.

Milan are in talks to extend with three key players: France internationals Maignan and Theo and Italian centre-back Gabbia.

The latest report from Gazzetta dello Sport claims that the Rossoneri are ready to offer their goalkeeper a €5m-a-year contract until 2029. Maignan currently earns €3.2m per season at San Siro and is reportedly happy to continue with the Rossoneri.

His compatriot Theo will probably need a higher contract offer, possibly close to Rafael Leao’s €7m-a-year salary. The Portuguese is the highest earner at the Stadio Meazza.

According to Gazzetta, Rossoneri directors met Theo’s agent, Manuel Garcia Quilon, in Madrid last week. The player’s representative insisted that his client is happy at the club and is willing to listen to an offer to raise his current €4.5m-a-year salary.

According to Gazzetta, Milan will need ‘more efforts’ to extend until 2029 with Theo than Maignan, but the club is confident of reaching an agreement with both.

Last but not least is Gabbia, who has become a regular starter under Paulo Fonseca. The agreement with the defender is practically sealed, and the 25-year-old’s salary will be raised to over €2m per season.

Milan have also begun preliminary talks to extend with Tijjani Reijnders, but the Dutch midfielder is under contract at San Siro until 2028 so there’ll be more time to negotiate with his entourage.
