Milan, the redemption of Brahim Diaz: the negotiation with Real Madrid

To buy the attacking midfielder, the Rossoneri need 22 million, with the Blancos having the recompra for 27 and would like to make a rich capital gain on it

Play from 10 in the house of the “Diez”. To relaunch the present and build another piece of the future. At Maradona, Brahim Diaz gave Milan the push towards the heaviest victory of the Rossoneri championship so far. An assist for Leao’s return to goal, a magician’s flash for doubling and another performance of technique and substance in the 4-0 film trimmed against leaders Napoli. With a lot of final concern and change for a muscle discomfort.

Run up

An alarm returned immediately after the race, with Pioli’s words: “He had a small problem with his adductors, but I don’t think it’s anything serious. He would have liked to continue but I didn’t want to risk it”. Because the most delicate moment is approaching for the Devil, with Empoli and the quarter-finals of the Champions League on the horizon. And when the match counts, Brahim Diaz is there. The 8-point test Maradona’s report card is the last piece of his best Rossoneri moment.He started in pursuit of the coup De Ketelaere, with goals, assists and convincing performances, on the 10th he placed himself in the center of Milan, leading everyone to think well in advance about his fate.

Heavy goals

Already a protagonist in the first season of the championship, with one of the flashes that uncorked the season (in the 4-2 draw at San Siro against Udinese), Diaz then confirmed himself at the top, always in a direct match. On 8 October, at the Meazza, he knocked out Juve thanks to another stellar play: a quick start from midfield, a scorched defense and a ball behind Szczesny for a 2-0 which could ultimately represent one of the heaviest results in the race for fourth place.

Growing

The former City is the most grown man in a 2023 of ups and downs for the team: Maradona’s illusionist game comes after the most important goal of the season, in the round of 16 of the Champions League against Tottenham. A spark in the first leg earned the return between the eight queens of Europe. The most precious gem, which led the club to focus on his situation with Real. To solve it, this time completely.

Perspectives

Leao aside, Diaz is the second key dilemma from a market perspective. The two-year loan from Real Madrid will end in June and a buyout of 22 million is at stake, with a possible buyout from the Blancos set at 26-27 million. The Spaniard feels part of the project, he is grateful to the club and the managers and would gladly stay at Milanello to continue his journey. Maldini and Massara intend to ask the European champions for a discount, while in Spain they are considering bringing him home to make a rich capital gain. The game has just begun and will move on these coordinates, without haste. At the moment there is discussion and the first answers will arrive between April and May, when Milan – between the Champions League and the championship – will have a more defined balance sheet of the present and the future, after the next cartel matches. We will need, for a change, the prime version of Brahim Diaz.
