Despite not having arrived at Milan yet – heck, he’s not even been announced yet – there would already appear to be a plan in place for Diawara. Indeed, the young French central defender was picked up for around €2 million and is seen as a player for the future.

However, it seems that the plan would be for him to skip the Futuro at this moment…

Plan for Diawara in place

As Gazzetta dello Sport write this morning, Milan already have an idea in mind for Diawara. Indeed, he will immediately be thrown into a ‘shadowing role’ under Strahinja Pavlovic, whom he is seen as ‘very similar’ to.

He was offered a starting spot with Rangers, but he instead opted for the chance to learn with the Rossoneri, which is a major tick in the box.

Like Andrej Kostic, the plan – at least initially – was for him to join the Futuro squad. However, he could well skip that step and head to the senior team straight away with the management already making considerations about his ability.

We shall have to see, but Ruben Amorim is keen to offer opportunities and Gerry Cardinale wants to see talent nurtured from the youth teams.
