Reports: Pavlovic nets big pay rise to fend off Premier League advances – his new salary

By: Oliver Fisher It was confirmed on Wednesday that Strahinja Pavlovic has signed a long-term contract extension with AC Milan, and he will net a nice pay rise.

Pavlovic is a pillar of the Milan squad and an integral part of Ruben Amorim’s new project. The Rossoneri center-back arrived in Italy two years ago from Red Bull Salzburg for €20m, including a fixed fee and potential bonuses.

Twenty days later, he made his Serie A debut as a starter. The following week, he scored his first goal for the club. Despite the team’s difficult last two seasons, Pavlovic has consistently held onto his starting spot, growing both on and off the pitch in terms of personality and leadership.
