One of the easiest ways to measure the impact of new signings is through the amount of goals that they contribute to, and the data is certainly positive for AC Milan.
As Calciomercato.com report, the 2023 summer transfer window has so far brought 24 goals out of a total of 51 scored by the Rossoneri. More specifically in Serie A, the goals contributed from new signings is 19 out of 41 – therefore almost half.
If you consider the current numbers with those of the new signings from last season, the comparison is incredible. Last year there were only five goals from the summer signings: three from Tommaso Pobega (who actually returned from a loan) and two from Divock Origi.
The 2023 class of summer additions also surpassed the 2020-21 and 2021-22 years: in the first the new players scored 17 goals in total, in the second – that of the Scudetto – the goals scored were 22.
Considering exclusively Stefano Pioli’s management, only the first the year in which he took over from Giampaolo saw more goals scored by the new signings: in the 2019-20 season it 38, thanks above all to Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ante Rebic.
A number which, however, given the current performance, could even be surpassed by Christian Pulisic and his team-mates.
