This afternoon, there has been a change in events as Warren Bondo’s future could aid another to stay at AC Milan.
This summer has certainly been an interesting one for the midfield. Milan have had three clear targets, gone for them and got them. However, the outgoing system has not been as effective, as unfortunate as that is.

Yacine Adli and Ismael Bennacer have both been listed for sale, but there has been no success in getting them out of the club just yet. Then there has been the case of Yunus Musah, too. However, it may be a good thing.
Bondo’s decision for two
The American midfielder has been to and from, and it has seemed like he was heading for an exit this summer with English clubs joining Napoli in the race. Now, though, he could remains with reports suggesting Massimiliano Allegri likes the American.
And, he could be allowedd to stay thanks to other movements. As MilanNews report this afternoon, Warren Bondo has now agreed to move to Cremonese – a deal done to allow him to continue developing – may allow the Rossoneri to keep Musah.
As it stands, there are six players in the midfield, which allows the suitable cover. So, Musah could remain to be a different option for Allegri, which is probably needed.
i dont mind keeping him , but only if he plays behind the half way line OR plays as RLC deputy nothing else nothing more
Íbamos TAN BIEN!!!! (MUSAH) ADIÓS MÁS DE 20 MILLONES
One coach. One position. Functional Team. Watch Musah go.
? Allegri will keep him.
So since Bondo is leaving, that means we ONLY have Modrić, Ricci, Jashari, Fofana, Musah, Loftus-Cheek, Bennacer and Adli. It’s pretty clear, unless a surprise that neither Adli nor Bennacer will be part of the team next season.
So I guess that makes Musah Fofana’s deputy and Loftus-Cheek one of the others’ deputy.
We have sold a number of players. So I don’t see it an issue selling these. I think Tare has been good in selling.
It means for musah: he should follow Bondo to others club
How many midfielders can Allegri use though, even if he likes them all. We have way too many.
There is no doubt in my mind that Musah is lights out “in practice” This will make 4 managers who value him. What is he doing in practice that he is not doing in games? He is not a scorer…at all, he has no passing vision. He has not shown to be a passer who can split lines, he makes very simple errors in possession. Overall his football IQ is weak.
He is physical, he can dribble well, and he has an engine.
He is 22, but I am not sure how much room there is for improvement in these things.
He is also good at ball carrying, which means he can get the ball out of defence quickly when you add up his other qualities. Not bad for a RWB or DM. He just needs some proper guidance and who better than Allegri? Maybe Conte, but maybe.
The answer is simple…. He is American
Yes Conte is famous for being American and preferring US players. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agree with gdog 100 percent .
I’ve been telling you Allegri wants Musah to stay since June. I got info from a really reliable person that got this info quite some time ago.
Musah will be our new Seedorf 🤣🤣
At any time, I would prefer Bennacer over Musah. Musah often makes unexplainable errors that have cost the team dearly.
I’d rather keep Bondo than Musah. Musah starts well when a new manager comes, then slowly drifts away. He hasn’t improved at all, and doesn’t know what to do when he gets into the opponent’s box. Sometimes, he makes these foolish dribbles in front of our box, and ends up losing the ball in dangerous positions. His first goal was against an opponent that we beat 9-0; I doubt whether he will be able to do that in a serious game. Football is not all about energy.
I think he can be really good defensively and difficult to take the ball away from. His passing is terrible, but if his job is to win the ball back and pass it to Modric, then I think he can do just fine. Or win the ball, carry it forward and pass it to the first open player you see. What I don’t want to see is him just riding the bench. At 22, if you play, you get better, your value increases. If you don’t play, you get worse, your value decreases. Older players make much better bench players – Florenzi was a great example – worth very little, but very capable bench player. Fill in at multiple spots, and no value increase or decrease from playing more or less. I guess it’s fine for him to stick in the team for now and see if Allegri can develop him. If not, send him somewhere that needs a midfielder in January.
Its good that Bondo leaves on loan and gets a guaranteed starting position in Cremonese. Those minutes will do him good and our midfield is too crowded. And in a year or two when Modric quits (or someone else like Musah gets sold) he can come back as the 6th midfielder.
Musah gets one last season to prove himself and if nothing changes he can be sold next.
