Joshua Zirkzee got on the scoresheet in the clash between AC Milan and Bologna last night, impressing once again in front of the Rossoneri management. Before the game, the club legend Billy Costacurta also said that he’s exactly what they need.
It was a disappointing draw in the end for Milan, with the game finishing 2-2, especially since they turned things around after Zirkzee’s opening strike. The latter has been heavily linked with the Rossoneri in the last few weeks and a goal was written in the stars.
Speaking to Sky Italia before the game, as cited by MilanNews, the Milan legend Costacurta shared his thoughts on the Rossoneri’s interest in Zirkzee. He stated that the Dutchman is just what they need, or at least a player with a similar profile.
“A centre-forward with the technical numbers of Zirkzee is missing at Milan. Great strikers have arrived but if we are talking about a player who treats the ball like this, Milan haven’t had one for many years,” he stated.
Depending on the future of Stefano Pioli, Milan could perhaps make a move for Zirkzee in the summer. On the other hand, Pioli has also expressed his admiration for the player, so an attempt seems more or less decided already.
