Can Milan keep their stars happy? Christian Pulisic watches the Europa League clash with Benfica at San Siro on September 16, 2026.
Gerry Cardinale is set to outline a plan with Milan’s board as the Rossoneri gear up for extension talks with Pulisic, Rabiot and Pavlovic, Gazzetta dello Sport reports.
The club intends to propose fresh contracts to the three key contributors: Pulisic, Rabiot and Pavlovic.
Milan prepared to restart negotiations on extensions for Pulisic, Rabiot and Pavlovic.
According to Gazzetta, Cardinale will confer with directors before meeting the players’ agents next week.
Cardinale returns to Milanello tomorrow after weeks abroad, will attend the Sassuolo‑Milan game at Mapei Stadium on Sunday, and continues his search for a new Head of Football. In my view, his comeback could reshape Milan’s transfer agenda.
Pulisic’s deal runs out at season’s end; although Milan hold an option to extend to 2028, they aim to seal a new agreement, perhaps by late January, given his strong link with the USMNT captain.
Pavlovic’s contract expires in 2028 with an extra year option for Milan. The Serbian defender has drawn Premier League interest, and the club is ready to discuss a wage increase.
Rabiot, vital under both Allegri and Amorim, also sees his current contract end in 2028, prompting Milan to offer a higher salary.
