Fonseca needs him. Milan will extend the contract with defender Gabbia
AC Milan defender Matteo Gabbia set to delight Rossoneri fans with a contract extension.
Details: Milan's homegrown central defender, Matteo Gabbia, is expected to sign a new contract with the club, extending his stay until June 2029, with an option for an additional season. This information comes from Fabrizio Romano, who cited the player's agent.
Quote: "Yes, Milan called me... He’s very happy to sign the new deal; there are just a few details left to finalize," the insider quotes the player’s agent.
Reminder: The 24-year-old has been part of Milan’s system since 2015. During the second half of last season, he was loaned out to Villarreal.
Under Paolo Fonseca, the defender has become a regular fixture on the field. So far, he has scored one goal in six appearances for the team.
