Fode Ballo-Toure looked to be away from AC Milan in the summer, but he began to train with the Futuro side last week, offering him another chance, perhaps. However, he certainly has not taken it, and he is in a familiar position once again.
When it was reported that the left-back was back at Milanello, it came as a bit of a shock, considering he had been blocked from training with Milan, amid a summer of no interest. Nevertheless, he was given an opportunity for the Futuro side, and perhaps, a chance to play regular minutes.
A red card in his debut was definitely not the way to take this opportunity and Calciomercato.com have reported that his destiny is sealed now. His contract ends on June 30, and his future is, understandably, ‘far from Milan’.
It seems a free transfer will be the only option, with him refusing a move during the summer – much to the displeasure of the management – and the previously interested teams remain as options for him.
When he does leave, it will mean the Diavolo have an extra €1 million net salary available for new – or existing – players. Any other added fees – perhaps, a move in January – would only be welcomed, given his fate is written.
Terminate his contract. Not the most ideal situation. He made a fool of himself on his return and cost the team the game.
Did you watch the game? I think you made a fool of yourself, but it wasn’t a red card. Do you write the same for Reijnders or this is just because Ballo Toure is not good enough for Milan?
Maldini paid this man a million net! 🤯
Yes, after playing for Monaco for 3 seasons, debuting almost a full season as a 20 year old. He didn’t look that bad in Monaco. Same as Chukwueze, look at him at Villareal and then at Milan. I can go on. Mistakes in transfers happen every season.
No body is going to want to pay money for him in January so let him stay around until the summer. Now I don’t care what they do with him for as long as they don’t extend his contract. Feel free sending him to the Futuro, staying on the stands or home whatever
Stupid. Basically the red card was not really justified but Milan decided not to let him play again and maybe get him off in January and save 500k€ or similar amount. Why? Are we removing Reijnders from the team as well because the referee gave him the red card?
