Sky: Expiring contract key as Bologna agree on low fee with Milan over Calabria | OneFootball

Davide Calabria will soon complete his move to Bologna, having left Milanello earlier today, and Milan will only bank a small amount for his departure. Of course, there is a very logical reason for this.

After a season with many ups and downs, Milan decided to part ways with Calabria and the former captain accepted the solution, reaching an agreement with Bologna. As he left Milanello earlier today, he was in tears but also stated that a new chapter has begun for him.

The right-back’s contract will expire in the summer and as a result, Bologna will only pay €2m to Milan for the player, as reported by Sky Italia (via MilanNews). It will result in a capital gain, seeing as Calabria came through the youth ranks, but it’s obviously not a huge one.

Milan have also decided not to replace the 28-year-old, instead relying on the new signing Kyle Walker and the youngster Alex Jimenez in that position. The former is expected to make his debut tomorrow as Milan will take on Inter in the Derby della Madonnina – certainly a baptism of fire.

Calabria’s move should be made official soon, but of course he needs to undergo the medical tests and sign the contract first.
