AC Miln played their first friendly game of the pre-season last night, drawing 1-1 against Rapid Wien, and there were many takeaways from the game. One of them being the need for more signings, as highlighted by the newspapers.
Several players failed to impress, as we noted in our player ratings for the game, while some impressed and improved their value on the mercato. After Alvaro Morata, Milan are indeed looking to complete some signings and there could be a fair bit of movement, in other words.
Niclas Füllkrug is one of the targets for the No.9 role, Youssouf Fofana remains the priority for the midfield and Strahinja Pavlovic is pushing for a move. This is something that was highlighted on the front pages this morning.
The front pages

✍ “Yildiz and Camarda, the signatures of the future.”
🙌 “Milan, Juve and two contracts to dream.”‘
Tuttosport
😬 “Few highlights in the 1-1 friendly against Rapid.”
🔜 “Now focus on Fofana and Pavlovic. Fonseca expects at least one of them before the US tour.”
Corriere dello Sport
➖ “Only 1-1 for Fonseca in the friendly against Rapid Wien.”
👀 “Milan leave the No.9 shirt to Füllkrug.”
Fronseca does not expect anything. He was not brought in by red bird to think or make demands. He was brought in to say yes and move on.
This is what he will do for the remainder of his time as coach.
He will nod and if he is asked to jump he will reply with how high. If he is asked to sell his players he will say how fast should I pack the bags.
This is why we brought him in. His ideas. His requests means nothing so articles like this don’t make allot of sense to me
You have no idea about how things work, do you? I think you’ll find all coaches, and that includes Ancelotti, Guardiola and Klopp, are beholden to their owners. They can make requests and they can decide whether or not to keep a players, but ultimately the owners call the shots.
Sir,you are not a true FANS. Secondly, most people in this platform are just ordinary not fans. Cos,everyday,Minutes and hours is just False,negative and disagreement you shared. If you have a company, organisation is this how complain everyday? If any of us father or uncle is Fonesca, is this how we addressed him. What will other club fans be saying about there own Teams( Napoli,Juventus, Inter,Roma,Lazio,Manchester United, Chelsea, Barcelona. ( Arsenal, without Trophy since) . Let the Transfer market end and Marches start. No player in this platform speculated to Ac milan we appreciate. Lastly: IN THE HISTORY OF AC MILAN, WE ALWAYS APPRECIATE OLD AND EXPERIENCE PLAYERS THAN UPCOMING. I APPRECIATE ZIRKZEE, BUT I DOUBT IF HE WILL SUCCEED IN THIS SEASON THAN MORATA,IF HE SIGNED FOR AC MILAN. SECONDLY,I DOUBT IF HE SUCCEED IN FIRST SEASON AT MANCHESTER UNITED THIS SEASON 2024/2025 .forza milan! Forza Azzurri!!
Really? So you have this inside knowledge how? You must work in the Milan front office, right?
No, you don’t. Oh, you are just an idiot who likes to complain about things they nothing about. Okay, now I understand.
Just a bunch of media speculations. Many players have not returned to the squad.
