Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho admits Maxwell will leave the club in the summer.
He said: "That wasn't my fault. (Davide) Santon is the one to blame! This 'child' can play 15 years for Inter. I would expect a dip in form or consistency from someone so young, but he improves with every game."
Maxwell has already been in negotiations with his future club, as his agent confirms a switch across the city to Milan is in the works.
"There is a possibility," confessed Mino Raiola.
