Milan set to offer new contract to Allegri amid Real Madrid speculation

La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Milan will offer Massimiliano Allegri a new contract until 2028 as the Rossoneri see the Italian tactician as the cornerstone of their project.

Milan’s likely qualification for the 2026-27 Champions League has prompted the Rossoneri directors to prepare a contract extension offer for their coach, Allegri.

Milan to offer Allegri a new contract

According to Gazzetta, Allegri remains a key part of the Milan project, so the club will offer the Italian tactician a one-year contract extension until June 2028 with an option for a further campaign.

Qualification for the Champions League will also allow Milan to offer Allegri a pay rise from the current €5m-a-year salary to €6m per season.

Previous reports in Italy, however, suggested that Allegri’s future at Milan beyond the summer was uncertain.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Real Madrid see Allegri as a potential candidate for their bench in 2026-27, while Sportitalia has claimed that the Livorno-born tactician is considering his future at San Siro due to concerns over the club’s management.

Questioned about the matter at a recent press conference, Allegri said: “There’s total harmony with the club regarding the rumours that came out this week.

“Of course, in any discussion, there can be different points of view. It’s important that everyone works for the good of Milan. I’m very happy to have returned to Milan after 15 years and to have started working with a wonderful group of players. The club is planning and structuring Milan’s future. To do that, we need to achieve the most important result. In March, we’re in a fairly good position. Now we have to see if we’re good enough to stay there or take the final step. There’s harmony between the club and me.”
