Overview

• Milan and Brighton are negotiating to close the gap between Milan’s €12 million opening bid and Brighton’s €23 million valuation with a package around €20 million including bonuses.
• Pervis Estupinan has provisionally agreed a five-year contract at €2.5 million net per season, with the transfer pending final fee approval.
• The club aims for Estupinan to undergo medical examinations in Milan early next week before joining the squad in Singapore for the preseason tour.
• Reported interest from Manchester United could intensify the competition for the Ecuadorian left-back and push up the transfer fee.
• As a contingency, Milan’s medical staff approved Almeria’s Marc Pubill in recent tests, keeping him under consideration if negotiations stall.
