Midfielder's agent believes AC Milan have opened talks with Viola

Riccardo Montolivo's agent is of the understanding that AC Milan have held talks with Fiorentina over the midfielder. The 26-year-old has been at the centre of intense speculation this summer as he is now into the final 12 months of his Viola deal. It is understood that Montolivo will not be penning an extension, with the Rossoneri heavily linked with his services. Montolivo's agent Giovanni Branchini insists his client is not rocking the boat and would happily see out of the remainder of his deal. However, Branchini believes Milan are in talks and that his client will only discuss personal terms if a deal can be agreed between the clubs.

Soap opera

"Not extending Montolivo's contract with Fiorentina is within the player's right," he told gazzzetta.it. "These things happen all over the world without being the subject of 'soap operas', as what has unfortunately happened in Fiorentina. "Montolivo has put himself totally at the disposal of Fiorentina. He's not asked to leave and is ready to see out his contract in Florence. "I think that Milan has spoken with Fiorentina. We'll talk with them once Viola have accepted their offer."
