AC Milan have a pivotal week ahead, but speculation has provided updates on the futures of Gianluigi Donnarumma, Alessio Romagnoli, Fikayo Tomori and Brahim Diaz.
The Rossoneri are now two wins away from securing a place in the Champions League next season, and so Stefano Pioli and the squad will no doubt be fully focused on the task in hand.

However, there are a number of question marks hanging over key members of the current squad, and answers will be needed as soon as possible after the Serie A campaign has concluded to offer more clarity over the future.
Donnarumma-Milan solution found?
As noted by MilanNews, via the paper edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, it’s suggested that Donnarumma could be edging towards signing a renewal with Milan after all, with a possible one or two-year extension emerging as a solution.
Negotiations are likely to be on hold for all contractual matters until the season is over, but it’s promising that there is now positive news regarding Donnarumma’s situation with his current deal set to expire next month.
Securing Champions League football will no doubt be a major factor in talks.
Romagnoli to stay with Milan
Meanwhile, the same report in the paper edition of GdS notes that Milan have no intention of selling Romagnoli this summer, with doubts being raised over our club captain’s future after losing his place in the starting line-up to Tomori.
However, with his experience and quality, he is still a key part of Pioli’s plans no doubt, although his current contract does expire next year and so talks may be needed sooner rather than later.
Milan intend on signing Tomori
Speaking of Tomori, Tuttosport, as reported by MilanNews, have suggested that Milan intend on signing the Chelsea loanee on a permanent basis this summer, with his fee set at €28m.
It’s added that we could attempt to try and lower that figure slightly, but qualification for the Champions League will no doubt make it an easier transaction to complete.
Another Milan loan deal for Diaz?
Elsewhere, GdS, as per MilanNews, have also claimed that Diaz could stay at Milan for another season, with talks expected to take place with Real Madrid.
It’s suggested that another season-long loan could be negotiated, with the Spaniard showing some positive signs this season, as seen on Sunday with his goal against Juventus, but he arguably still has much to prove to earn a permanent switch to San Siro.
