The
Italian has made 15 appearances in Serie A but has been out for first team
action since the start of the season.
His
agent Manuel El Shaarawy told MilanNews that he received few offers from top sides but his client is no mood to leave the San Siro.
Agent
added: “He has a good relationship with
the fans, the club and his teammates.”
Manuel
further added that he would only seek a new club if Milan ask him to do else he
would spend as long as he can.
“If
Milan were to tell us that Stephan needs to go elsewhere then we’d sit round
the table and talk about it.”
It
was also reported that Milan CEO Adriano Galliani offered El Shaarawy to local
side Genoa for a loan deal, however, these rumours were all ended as the agent
revealed:
“To
my knowledge, [joint-CEO Adriano] Galliani has not offered Stephan to Genoa.”
Telegraph
also reported that Liverpool are also keeping tabs on his situation and are
willing to offer £12million to secure his services.
