He is right though
Inter won last season and they won't be winning again. It's Juve who will be the frontrunners again this season.
I don't think there's any way we're not signing an extension with Kessie. Hakan is replaceable at around 30-40m. Kessie is already worth double that and you literally can't replace him with someone equal or better with the same (alleged) age as him. 5m seems more than reasonable for Kessie especially since we were offering Gigio 8m (so we know we can afford those numbers for exceptional players). Even something slightly higher than 5 is fine. No player in the team can credibly claim to be on the same level as Kessie right now, so he could be a minor exception to the 4m wage cap, like Ibra and Gigio. By the time Ibra leaves we will have bit more freedom in the wage budget to increase Theo, Bennacer and a few others that prove themselves, and if we secure another CL qualification we can slowly increase the wage cap accordingly.
We won't leave it so rigid that we lose everyone because we're not willing to either make exceptions or increase the wage cap as the seasonal goals increase.

GdS and Tutto Sport: Pioli is working to convince Calhanoglu to stay in Milan. He considers him an important player in the team.
@RadioRossonera: Marco Branca from the agency @FIRS1_Sports has just arrived at Casa Milan to evaluate some profiles that Maldini and Massara would like to see.

Probably a shit source but?
Top Calcio 24: from a source very close to the player and the prosecutor, it was found that Kessie asked for 6 million. The Rossoneri club reaches a maximum of 4.5 and will not go further. Appointment next week. Kessie has made it known that he wants to renew only at 6 million, not less, and that he is ready to go away to zero in 2022.

The way the croqueta is becoming his signature move and that radicicolous pass to rebic. And he just turned 21.
What separates Tonalli from current italian midfielders is his raw pace. I honestly can't remember the last time I have seen an Italian midfielder be that fast
The same people crying about Locatelli are the same ones who want to get rid of this talent. I mean locatelli was also around the same age when we sold him and at that time he was far from being a starting material. We need to be patient ffs.
On the season: “We have had a special and exciting season. Here at Milan there is a great sense of unity that gives me great pride. This gives the club crazy strength.”
On securing a return to the Champions League: “What a great emotion. We suffer like all the fans. It was the result of hard work, we deserved to return to the Champions League. It is also important how we achieved it, it is an important goal for everyone.”
On the strength of the group: “It is special, it is young, but with a crazy mentality. It has great strength inside, it wants to win. This team has always given an answer, this means having a great mentality. This group is very strong”.
On the fans: “I have no words for these fans. We have all lived through a difficult moment, but we have always felt their support. At Milan we are all united, with this attitude everything is possible. They give me chills when I think about what they did away from Casa Milan. I want to thank them because their support is essential for our growth. My great hope is that in the future I can only be considered a fan of Milan like them. Forza Milan sempre!”
On the future: “This path is difficult, we are only at the beginning.”
On Milan Women: “Our girls have had a fantastic season, they must continue like this. They too will be in the Champions League next year. I have no words for this team, they are all fantastic.”
On Giacinti: “She is a force of nature, she gives 120% at all times. This is an important example not only for women’s football, but also for men.”
On the club: “It is the most important thing, the club is above all, it is above all individual interests. It is essential to have a spirit of unity.”
On Pioli: “For me Stefano is a great example. He lived through a period of great pressure, but he has always thought about the good of the club. He is a very profound man, I was surprised by his passion, trust in the group and his his closeness to each player.”
On the team: “We have a strong group, with strong players, only in this way can we be successful. We need quality players, we have a very modern team off the pitch that is doing a fantastic job. Paolo Maldini is a point of reference both technically and when we think about the values of the club. The fans can have faith in this team.”
On the weight of Milan off the pitch: “We have weight. Scaroni is a credible president who has great influence. There is Maldini who also has great influence.”
On Tomori: “For a striker, Tomori is a nightmare. Nothing is easy with him, it is not possible to beat him in speed or even by force.”
On the squad: “We have modern players with strength and speed. We want players who can grow in our club.”
