The two clubs have agreed on a transfer fee of €17 million plus an additional €2 million in bonuses. The player will sign a 4+1 year contract, earning €2 million per season plus bonuses. Estupinan was keen to join the Rossoneri, and his agent Jorge Mendes played a key role in facilitating the deal. The 27-year-old spent three seasons at Brighton after joining from Villarreal, making 104 appearances and registering 5 goals and 14 assists for the Seagulls.
Meanwhile, Besiktas have shown interest in Milan defender Emerson Royal. The Eagles’ coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer appreciates the Brazilian’s qualities and wants him in the squad. The Turkish club’s management have already held initial talks with the Rossoneri regarding the potential transfer.
In another move, Milan midfielder Tommaso Pobega will once again play for Bologna. The Rossoneri will receive €1 million for the season-long loan of the 26-year-old Italian, but this time the Rossoblu will be obligated to buy him permanently for €7 million.
