Fisayo has refused to extend his contract which is due to expire at the club next summer and with six months left in his deal, he is free to speak with other clubs based abroad. A blow to Sheffield who had an offer of £1m from Blackpool but rejected it with the hope that he will extend his deal.
The former Manchester City youth prospect has been ever present for the second placed League One side making 26 appearances in total this season, scoring five times. He even started in Wednesday FA Cup win over high flying Newcastle United.
His contract situation has made it easy for him to be the target of some top teams around Europe. According to Sky Sports, AC Milan are now taking an interest alongside Turkish duo Besiktas, Antalyaspor and Dutch side PSV Eindhoven.
However recent reports indicate that he is keen on a move to AC Milan and talks with the club and his representatives is going well. A raw central midfielder with bags of potential – and known for his powerful breaks from the middle of the park, and he suits the profile of the kind of midfielder the Italians want in their team.
He trained with the 2019 U20 team ahead of the World Cup in Poland but didn’t make the final squad for the tournament. He is a graduate of the Manchester City youth system just like his brother Tom Dele-Bashiru, who is also doing well at Watford.
