Apparently, the player is waiting to be offered a contract renewal, as his current deal expires in 2010. The Spanish international would like an extension until 2012, but the club are still considering their options.
The Rossoneri are reportedly ready to step in. Puyol has never hidden his admiration for the Italian outfit and their vice-president, Adriano Galliani, has compared Puyol to the legendary Paolo Maldini in the past.
