Former AC Milan star Stefano Eranio has urged management not to let Franck Kessie leave.
The Ivory Coast midfielder's deal expires in June.
Eranio said, “If you lose him, you lose half your midfield.
“Milan and Stefano Pioli can show all the respect and admiration in the world, but we already saw with Gigio Donnarumma and Hakan Calhanoglu that really isn't enough.
“Kessie's agent is making some big demands, but in a squad where Zlatan Ibrahimovic earns €7m per season and he is 40 years old, I think Kessie deserves what he's asking for.
“It's about time Milan make an effort economically, because they can't lose three key players in two years as free transfers."
