Milan focus on new contracts for Pulisic, Rabiot and Pavlovic as Cardinale returns

AC Milan owner Gerry Cardinale is set to meet with club directors to coordinate contract extension plans for Christian Pulisic, Adrien Rabiot, and Strahinja Pavlovic, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. Cardinale will attend the match against Sassuolo following weeks overseas, with meetings involving the players' representatives planned for next week.

Pulisic's current deal expires at the end of the season, and Milan reportedly aims to finalize a new agreement before January despite holding an option to extend through 2028. Milan also intends to offer pay raises and extensions to both Rabiot and Pavlovic, who are each under contract through 2028, amidst Premier League interest in the Serbian defender.
