Brahim Diaz popped up with another important goal for AC Milan and another against Juventus on Saturday night, and now he has a double mission in mind.
Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews) this morning writes how the Spaniard was in fact deployed wide right in the trident behind Olivier Giroud and he repaid his confidence with an excellent performance and a lovely goal.

The arrival of Charles De Ketelaere over the summer has cast a shadow over Brahim Diaz who has struggled for playing time and for starts in particular, but he sent a clear and strong message after his goal.
His target at the moment is to regain a starting spot but it will not be easy because at the moment he is still behind in the hierarchies, given the amount invested on the Belgian, but CDK is struggling to hit the ground running and the Spaniard could take advantage.
There is another target for Brahim, too. He is on loan with an option to buy set at €22m – while Real Madrid can exercise a €27m buy-back – so the goal is to convince the Rossoneri management to make his loan a permanent move.
The moment Milan signed CDK, Brahim’s future was decided. This will be his last season as a Milan player.
Unless they can negotiate that fee down to €15m which I think they’ll try to do, or maybe even try for a new loan.
This roller coaster (from “Diaz is useless” to “Diaz is an asset”,” Pioli is clueless” to “Pioli is a master”, Leao…, Tonali…) needs to stop, it’s just ridiculous.
One bad game and everyone is trash, 3 days afterwards a good victory and everyone is great.
Honestly we should have gotten Dybala before he went to Roma. I guess Milan management were not ready to pay him the 6million per season
After we saw Dybala getting injured while taking a penalty, there are still people that talk about how Milan should have signed Dybala.
