Jovic criticised by Italian papers after Milan-Udinese: “Not Milan-worthy”

Luka Jovic played from start in AC Milan’s game against Udinese yesterday evening but failed to impress the fans at San Siro. In fact, he was named the worst player on the pitch but the major Italian outlets. 

The Serbian got the chance from the first minute thanks to Stefano Pioli’s formation change to the 4-4-2, feeling him alongside Olivier Giroud. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a successful evening for the former Fiorentina man with many lost balls.

In our player ratings, he got a 4.5/10 and was named the worst player on the pitch. The story was the same in Gazzetta dello Sport (4), Corriere dello Sport (4) and Tuttosport (4.5). In short, the media didn’t go easy on Jovic and it’s clear that he needs to improve.

Gazzetta dello Sport even stated that Jovic isn’t ‘Milan-worthy’, which is about as harsh as you can be. In the meantime, Milan loanee Lorenzo Colombo is now on four goals for Monza, scoring yet another screamer in the game against Hellas Verona earlier today (see here).
