This is where I saw it.It was recently reported that his current contract will be reworked.

*️⃣Ya le comunicó a River y al futbolista la decisión.
*️⃣La última oferta del millonario era de u$s 11.500.000 a pagar en plazos.
*️⃣Le mejorarán el contrato y se buscará una venta a Europa en junio. pic.twitter.com/U0gYsb4urG
Auto translate:
New York City FC decided not to sell Taty Castellanos despite her desire.

* ⃣ The millionaire's last offer was for US$11,500,000 to be paid in installments.
* ⃣ The contract will be improved and a sale to Europe will be sought in June.
As the ET guys speculate, even if the plan is to sell in a few months, a bigger contract makes him happier while he's here. And if we start paying him $3M, as they speculate, that provides heft to larger fee demands. And it also provides a better base for his salary demands.
ETA - I admit I was surprised by the report, but I guess there is some logic to it. OTOH, I would not be surprised if this guy has sources regarding the negotiations, but he might still just be speculating about the new contract.
Also, I found this via MLS Buzz which is a solid follow:
NYCFC will give Taty Castellanos a new contract and wait to sell him to Europe in the summer.

Turned down $11.5 million from River Plate.
Massive moment for NYCFC, they have a serious shot at CCL. https://t.co/2pNujqKdMx
