Fofana will decide his future within a month. He has not yet spoken with Beşiktaş, and his primary goal is to play more games, preferably staying with Milan.

Youssouf Fofana has "wiped" his social media page clean: all posts have been deleted, leaving only a blank space and an all-black profile picture, with absolutely no Milan-related content. This approach is very similar to Mike Maignan's. Why did he do this? What are his plans for this summer and next season? The answer is clear: Fofana just wants to temporarily stay away from social media, not disappear forever. As for the new season, he wants to play, and preferably still at Milan.

If Fofana feels his position is being squeezed out, where might he go? The outside world has written about interest from Beşiktaş, but this club has actually never spoken to his agent. Ligue 1 and the Premier League are the most natural destinations, but there are no in-depth negotiations at the moment.

England is particularly noteworthy because many clubs there can offer serious bids.

Milan could ask for €15-20 million, which is a reasonable price for a player with two years left on his contract, who was consistently in the French national team squad until a few months ago.
