Milan will receive an immediate €57.7 million (£50m/$68m) from Man City for Reijnders, slightly more than the initially reported €55m (£47m/$64m). The Rossoneri have carefully structured a bonus system that could see the total fee rise to €70.7m by 2030, the year Reijnders' contract with City expires.

The agreement includes performance-based add-ons worth up to €14m (£12m/$16.3m), covering both individual and team achievements. Bonuses include: €5m for Champions League qualification, €1m for winning the Premier League, €1m if Reijnders is named Premier League Player of the Year, €2m for a Ballon d'Or win, €2m for a Champions League title, and €3m spread across possible renewals through 2032. However, if Reijnders is sold before 2030, Milan will still receive the full €14m, unless no bonus conditions are met or the Dutchman leaves on a free transfer.

Reijnders, who will turn 27 this month, is currently enjoying vacation following the Cityzens' shock round of 16 exit at the hands of Al-Hilal. He is expected to return to pre-season duty later this month, with a friendly against Italian side Palermo scheduled for August 10, less than a week before their Premier League campaign kicks off with a match against Wolves.
