AC Milan have reached personal terms with Youssouf Fofana, but AS Monaco’s asking price remains a significant hurdle.
Fofana has agreed to a five-year contract with Milan, worth €2.5m per season. However, Monaco is holding out for a €25m transfer fee, while Milan is aiming to secure the midfielder for €15m including various add-ons.
Youssouf Fofana is determined to join Milan, having previously turned down a €30m move to Nottingham Forest in favor of a more ambitious club.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that negotiations continue as Milan hopes Fofana’s preference will help reduce Monaco’s demands and finalize the deal.
