Overview
- Milan has begun sounding out Goretzka’s intentions and financial terms, exploring a potential July 2026 arrival on a free transfer.
- Goretzka’s Bayern contract runs to June 2026, positioning him to move without a fee once it expires.
- The midfielder earns about €7 million net per season at Bayern, a figure seen as prohibitive for Milan, with Corriere suggesting he might consider closer to €5 million.
- La Gazzetta reports Bayern and Goretzka were never close to a renewal and a separation is expected, though this remains outlet reporting rather than a formal decision.
- Milan’s stance is shaped by parallel priorities, including Mike Maignan’s renewal talks and the uncertain future of Luka Modrić, while Goretzka has logged regular league appearances this season despite past injuries.
