Agent denies Milan contact over Palermo ace

Simplicio will be out of contract next summer and reports have linked him with a move to the Rossoneri.

“We are not talking to anyone at the moment and we’ll wait for January,” agent Gilmar Rinaldi said to Calciomercato.it.

“I have already talked to Fabio and I told him that I will travel to Italy in January to try and resolve this situation.”

Palermo are reportedly keen to extend Simplicio’s contract, but talks have stalled.

“I have come to Italy five times and we never wrapped things up,” explained Rinaldi.

“I will now wait here in Brazil. No one has called me and there is no news nor do we any scheduled meetings.”
