Donnarumma, Kean, Lukaku: Mino Raiola plans his clients’ future
One of the most important names on his clients’ agent is AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. The Italian shot-stopper is stunning the world with his performances and given that he’s going to turn 18 next February it is quite safe to say that he is the most promising goalkeeper in the world at the moment.
The rossoneri goalie, however, has yet to find economic agreement with AC Milan over a contract extension. The two parties had initially agreed to sign a new € 2 million-a-year-deal, but interest of Juventus and Real Madrid have convinced Raiola to put negotiations on hold and raise the salary request for his client.
Juventus starlet Moise Kean is also one of the most promising players out there as he has just gained promotion to Juventus senior squad and could make his debut soon. Yet again, no agreement over a contract extension between the two parties, not to mention that Raiola could ask for big money once the Italian hit-man makes senior debut with the Serie A giants.
As for Blaise Matuidi, the French midfielder is not likely to leave his club in January, but he’s not on good terms with Unai Emery and a new contract with the Ligue1 side has yet to be agreed, whilst Raiola hopes that Romelu Lukaku is going to become the next big deal after the sale of Pogba to Manchester United. Everton rejected an offer of € 60 million from Chelsea in the last transfer window, but next summer could be the right one for the Belgian striker to leave the Goodison Park.
