CM: Brahim Diaz facing a crossroads in 2022-23 as Milan look for answers

By Oliver Fisher -

Brahim Diaz is about to begin arguably his most important season yet as a player having had a mixed season in the Scudetto winning campaign.

Yesterday was his 23rd birthday, but Calciomercato.com write how the arrivals of Yacine Adli and Charles De Ketelaere mean that he will have certainly been thinking about what awaits in 2022-23. A decisive season is on the horizon for the Spaniard as he must convince Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara to buy him from Real Madrid.

In June 2023 his two-year loan will end and the Rossoneri will have the opportunity to make the deal permanent for €22m, which is not a low sum and will certainly force some reflections. The player is preparing for the start of the new season with the awareness that he will not be able to get away with playing how he has in 2022 so far.

There is now competition for his spot and while the season is very long with lots of commitments, Brahim Diaz will have to hit the ground running. He could well be Stefano Pioli’s weapon to come off the bench and change games, but the aim has to be to prove he deserves starts, all with the €22m price tag hanging over him and the No.10 shirt on his back.

  1. Wish Diaz the best of luck. He has the ability to conquer this season. Big pressure test for him. If he comes thru he will set his career on the up and up.
    He wears our jersey… Forza Milan!

  2. The reality is that Brahim Diaz doesn’t have it. There’s a reason why he didn’t cut it at Man City and Real Madrid. Diaz was in the City academy, a year ahead of Jadon Sancho. He was called up to the first team while Sancho was shipped out to Borussia Dortmund.

    While Diaz struggled at Man City before Madrid came calling, Jadon exploded at Dortmund. Madrid took Diaz with the hope that a change of environment could help unlock his potential. It still hasn’t and he was farmed out to Milan. At Milan, Diaz has still not set pulses racing.

    He is not worth 22m. Milan should cut the loan short and send him back to Spain.

  3. This season are last chance for brahim to prove himself . If he failed even real madrid will terminate his contract like luka jovic. Brahim right now only get 1m euro nett with low transfer value so real madrid only loss little
