Journalist gives Milan’s summer mercato so far a rating and justifies his judgement

AC Milan deserve high praise for the mercato that they have been able to conduct so far and because of the players they have brought in, a journalist has claimed.

During a column Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews), Mario Sconcerti gave an evaluation of the Rossoneri’s market so far and gave it a score of 8 out of 10. Milan were the first team not to have players dictate to them when it comes to important contract renewals and the club did the right thing in replacing Gianluigi Donnarumma with Mike Maignan when they did.

Milan are on the same line as Juve and Inter as per the journalist, but there are still some issues to be resolved such as not having an obvious alternative for Franck Kessie and Ismael Bennacer, having two old and cumbersome strikers and the possibility of relying too much on Brahim Diaz.

The Diavolo need 12 goals from Leao this season, Sconcerti writes, but the management have done well to build a team that works together.
