Moretto: Renewal talks with Saelemaekers and Tomori proceeding ‘very quickly’ – the latest

AC Milan opened talks with Alexis Saelemaekers and Fikayo Tomori a while back to discuss contract renewals, and according to Matteo Moretto, everything is proceeding ‘very quickly’. 

In addition to evaluating opportunities on the mercato, Milan also need to make sure that their current players remain happy and protected. Without a doubt, the arrival of Max Allegri has helped them on this front, as several players look revitalised and more inclined to renew.

Saelemaekers and Tomori are two of these players, with Allegri placing a lot of trust in them at the start of this season. This has also resulted in the club opening talks with the respective entourages, with renewals seemingly on the cards.

Renewals on the cards

According to Matteo Moretto, discussing the duo in one of his latest videos, an eye must be kept on both as the renewal talks are proceeding ‘very quickly’. Milan have made them priorities and want to secure the agreements as soon as possible.

Tomori already earns a pretty penny, with €3.5m net per year, so it remains to be seen if he will be given a pay rise or not. Especially since he didn’t exactly impress last season, though he also benefits from the Growth Decree (which makes it cheaper for Milan.

As for Saelemaekers, he ‘only’ earns around €1.3m net so we can definitely expect to see an increase for the Belgian.
