Christian Abbiati’s tenure at Milan seems to come to an end this summer according to reports in the media.

The shot-stopper’s contract is expiring in the summer and the Rossoneri are not keen in offering him an extension.

It is being reported Milan are tracking Atalanta’s Andrea Consigli and Genoa-owned Mattia Perin as possible replacements, as they want a younger replacement for Abbiati.

Abbiati joined Milan in 1998, and has also spent time out on loan to Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Torino.  The veteran keeper has won a host of major trophies including the 2010–11 Serie A title which he played a crucial role in.

His performances of late however has been poor with many blunders and costly mistakes, most notably against Napoli this season.

He has been linked with Spanish outfit Levante.
