Milan has offered €15 million for Estupiñán, with a net annual salary of €2.5 million and a market value of €30 million.

Serie A teams currently lack funds and can only pick up some affordable players to build their squads, and AC Milan is no exception. According to the latest news from Italian media outlet "Gazzetta dello Sport," Milan has raised their offer for Brighton's 27-year-old Ecuadorian left-back Estupiñán to €15 million.

It is reported that Milan's previous offer of €12 million for Estupiñán was rejected by Brighton because the player has two years left on his contract, and his transfermarkt valuation is €30 million, which is more than double Milan's offer. After the first offer was rejected, Milan did not give up and increased their bid to €15 million, which is now close to Brighton's initial asking price of €20 million. Both sides still need to negotiate on the transfer fee and contract details, but Milan feels optimistic about signing Estupiñán this summer window.

Regarding personal agreements, Milan is close to finalizing terms with Estupiñán for a 4+1 year contract with a net annual salary of €2.5 million, and negotiations are nearing completion.

Estupiñán joined Brighton from Villarreal in the summer window of 2022 for a transfer fee of €17.8 million, and during his time with the Seagulls, he has made 104 appearances across all competitions, scoring 5 goals and providing 15 assists, showcasing his strong attacking attributes as a left-back.

The 27-year-old Estupiñán stands at 1.75 meters tall, is a left-footed player primarily playing as a left-back, and his contract with Brighton runs until 2027, with a transfermarkt valuation of €30 million. Last season, Estupiñán made a total of 36 appearances for Brighton across all competitions, including 30 starts, contributing 1 goal and 1 assist.
