Although AC Milan had reached an oral renewal agreement with main goalkeeper Meinion a few months ago, the formal contract has not yet fallen on paper. As the French approaches the contract year, the possibility of leaving the team in the summer window is also increasing. The Ross and Blacks are ready to go both ways and will introduce new players to replace them once the negotiations fail. Alternative targets include De Gea and Svilal.

As the 24/25 season approaches, AC Milan has also begun to negotiate for renewal of some of the main players, with three main targets, namely Pulisic, Teo and Menion, who have more or less problems in the negotiations.

Plicic has two years left in his contract, and Milan has one year's renewal option. However, the club basically missed the Champions League next season, and many Premier League teams are chasing, and Captain America has the possibility of leaving the team. Special O's contract has one year left and the negotiations have not started for a long time. Real Madrid has been strongly involved. The quasi-new coach Alonso Cin has ordered Special O's. They want to sign the old French player back, and their salary and Champions League qualification have become the most attractive conditions.

Menion is the most confusing one. The French national gate renewal negotiations have always been in a state of "coming soon". He has already reached an oral renewal agreement with the club, and the new contract is over 2028. However, as the management reassess the situation and the signing of the formal contract was unlimitedly pushed, Mai Niang also has the risk of leaving the team.

According to Italian media reports, Milan has begun to look for a replacement for Menion, with two main targets. The first is Roma goalkeeper Svilal. The Red Wolves won the Serbian from Benfica, a European black store, in 2022. The players began to firmly hold the main position last season, and their performance this season was far beyond expectations.

Sveral completed 15 clean sheets in 35 games, conceding 32 goals, 8 fewer than expected goals. In the match against Fiorentina, he surpassed Torino goalkeeper Milinkovic Savic with a save success rate of 77.6%, setting a record for single saves in Serie A.

At present, many giant clubs including Bayern and Chelsea have begun to pay attention to Svilal. If Milan lets Menion go, they will also join the competition. The 25-year-old Serbian currently has an annual salary of only 900,000 euros plus bonuses in Rome, with the contract ending in 2027.

Roman management hopes to retain the rising star, but their first 1.8 million euro renewal offer has been rejected by the players. The new conditions offered by the team extend the contract to 2030, and the annual salary will be increased to 3 million euros plus bonuses. The core dispute in the negotiations lies in the termination clause, which the player's agent requires to take effect from the summer of 2026.

Milan's second goal is former Manchester United meritorious goalkeeper De Gea. Espanyol joined Fiorentina after leaving Manchester United for one year. His form has not declined. He has made 11 clean sheets this season, averaging 2.9 saves per game, conceded 44 goals. De Gea, 34, has rich experience in the competition and completed 8 saves in the Europa League semi-finals with Betis, and was rated 8.4 points.

De Gea's contract with Florence will expire this summer, and its current annual salary is 1.2 million euros after tax, and Milan can be visa-free. Regarding his future, the Spaniard did not give a clear answer in an interview, but only said to the reporter: Let's go and see for a day.
