"In the summer, Thiaw was sold to Newcastle United for a fee of €35 million. Of course, that is a hefty sum, and to Milan, it was the value that was considered enough to see him depart. It is important to remember that players are largely not unsellable. Instead, they have a value where if the offer surpasses this amount, it will be listened to."
"After his fine start to life in England, where he has become central to Newcastle's defence, Manchester United and Bayern Munich are both evaluating whether to make a move for the recent signing. Already, there is a belief that at least €60-70m will be required, too."
"As the report states, despite him being young with plenty of resale still, there was no resale clause inserted into his departure. So, if he leaves, there will be no money coming to Milan. A very frustrating error in the deal."
AC Milan sold defender Malick Thiaw to Newcastle United for €35 million in the summer, establishing his value threshold below €40 million. After a strong start in England where he became central to Newcastle's defense, Manchester United and Bayern Munich are now evaluating moves for him, with valuations reaching €60-70 million. Milan's frustration stems from two issues: the initial sale without an adequate replacement and critically, the absence of a resale clause in the transfer agreement. This omission means Milan will receive no financial benefit if Thiaw transfers to another club, representing a significant negotiating oversight.
