CM: Milan and Chaka Traore reach agreement over long-term renewal | OneFootball

AC Milan have reached an agreement with Chaka Traore over the renewal of his contract, meaning they will tie down one of their biggest talents long-term.

Reaching the UEFA Youth League semi-finals was a sign that Milan’s Primavera side are heading in the right direction after years of struggle and it is thanks to talents like Traore that Ignazio Abate’s men were able to go so far.

However, the young Ivorian needed his contract situation resolving. His deal was originally set to expire at the end of last month but the club triggered a one-year option to move that to June 2024.

Now, Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com is reporting that Milan and Traore have reached an agreement over a multi-year extension. The 18-year-old will pen a new deal until 2028 next week, the journalist writes.

The left winger scored seven times in 22 league games last season having netted eight the season before, and he impressed in Europe too.
