"The two clubs have reached an agreement," said Fernando Hidalgo Wednesday after leaving a meeting in Milan with AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani and Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon.

"We are talking about another season on loan. This time Milan will pay his wages and he has accepted a substantial salary cut."

Crespo's desire to stay with Milan made it difficult for Chelsea to take him back to England where he found it difficult to settle down.

"Crespos wish to remain with Milan proved decisive," Hidalgo said. "Next week we will resolve everything."

Hidalgo is also acting on behalf of Crespo's Argentina international team-mate Juan Sebastian Veron, who has also been loaned out by Chelsea to Inter Milan.

Veron's future was also being discussed at another meeting with Inter officials later on Wednesday.

Crespo scored twice for Milan in the Champions League final against Liverpool but still ended up on the losing side after the Merseysiders won a penalty-shoot-out in Istanbul.
