Revealed: Why AC Milan are still monitoring Empoli star Saponara
Our transfer pundit Fabrizio Romano has exclusively learned that Empoli are considering extending the player’s contract despite a disappointing start to the season and negotiations are already ongoing.
Saponara’s Empoli contract runs until 2018 and preliminary talks between the two parties have already taken place.
AC Milan are monitoring the situation as they have a 30% of profit from next sale of the product of their academy and also the rossoneri hope that Saponara’s performances will improve in the next few weeks so that Empoli can potentially sell him at a higher price than what they would if he continues delivering poor performances.
