Agent: 'Patrick Cutrone close to new AC Milan deal'

The agent of AC Milan forward Patrick Cutrone has revealed that his client is close to signing a new contract with the Italian giants.

Cutrone came through the youth system at Milan, and has scored 15 times in 37 appearances during an impressive first season in the senior side.

The 20-year-old, who also made his Italy debut during the recent international break, has been linked with a move away from Milan in recent weeks.

The player's agent Donato Orgnoni, however, has said that "there won't be any problems" when it comes to the striker penning a fresh contract at San Siro.

"We'll renew his contract with Milan soon. There won't be any problems, even if some interest has arrived from abroad," Orgnoni told Tuttosport.

Cutrone has managed seven goals in 20 Serie A appearances during the 2017-18 campaign.
