AC Milan appear to be putting the pieces in place for what they hope will be a January signing to reinforce the midfield, a report claims.
According to Corriere dello Sport (via MilanNews) this morning, the management are carefully evaluating some profiles who could come in and flesh out the depth of the midfield department, which is stretched at present.
Ismael Bennacer has been out of action virtually all season and though he should return to training in one month, caution and patience will be needed in the final stages of his recovery process. As a result, Youssouf Fofana and Tijjani Reijnders might have to work overtime for a while longer yet.
Milan lack a real alternative at present and in their quest to fix this issue they have highlighted 20-year-old Reda Belahyane of Verona as a target. The Moroccan has French citizenship so would not take a non-EU slot, and he qualifies as a List B player too.
The paper adds that Milan’s directors have already had contact with the agents of Belahyane, who would cost around €10m despite his impressive performances in Serie A. In addition to him, the Rossoneri are also evaluating other profiles, such as Johnny Cardoso of Real Betis.
Perfect replacement for bennacer and don’t forget Gabriel Zappa also perfetto replacement for our capitano Calabria..
how are they perfect? what games were they actually tested in?
We need RLC to go, along with Jovic, and Florenzi. And the only 2 players we need is Chiesa/Gnoto and Frendrup/Ricci
Genoa financial crisis makes sense for Frendrup and Ricci can be bought as Bennacer replacement if he doesn’t majestically turn into his prime form in 2nd half of the season. While the wingers are both risk… can Chiesa bounce back? Can Gnoto step-up?!
Idk why this management want mostly from france and france colonized countries players that played one time against us oldies or free transfer why zappa isnt tested against big teams or has exp same with belahyane he only has 11 games exp in serie a. Why ? Frendrup at least big teams wanted him he has way more exp and he can help out as CM too ricci might be expensive but he is very good player that we should try to get plus at last we need CAM or CM if we make reijnders as cam we need strong CM so yh these players they mentioned should in reality get them fired 😔
A) Jeff and co keep doing things the wrong way round and the quality of the team will not improve
B) we need italians
C) is he really a true #6?
D) of the players he scouted on his own (without M&M) have not worked out except Reijnders (who is great going forward but when Milan dont have ball is a dog chasing his tail) he hides, ball watches, and reacts too late. Check the tape.
– The other “success” stories were already pre-scouted. Morata is not a success and wont be (could write a thesis on this) he left his wife and children in Spain which is a huge red flag on a personal level. And footballers are people.
Seems the algorithm doesn’t account for personality defects. Including his antics, diving, and general scummery.
E) his targets get more ridiculous each time and better/cheaper players get overlooked because of a broken excuse for an algorithm
F) he needs to go or at least be demoted to futuro permanently
G-Z) who has that kind of time when A-F will do.
Can we stop going for “talents” and start going for actually good players ?
If I hear the words “talent” or “potential” one more time…
Belahyane has great potential and its one of the talents breakthrough this season
🤣🤣🤣rubbing it in…
I see what you did there 🤣🤣🤣
Unless they are moving out a player…a signing is meaningless when you play only 11 players…there is no reason to get excited because I don’t get to watch them practice. I wouldn’t even know Musah was one of the best open-field defenders in Series A if he wasn’t just randomly assigned to cover Vini (ok, I would; he picked a lot of pockets last year). This kid could be a star, but you will have to wait for a specific moment when the team needs him to play against one of the best players in the world. That could take a while. Cause even if he started in a pivot with Reijnders and virtually the same team as this year and beat a team 5-1, I’d rather let that team have the ball and attack and take the 3-3 draw as it feels more fair…
A legendary 10 mil player? Not even 20mil?
Must be a revolution in the midfield coming!
its gonna rain victories now boys! Mighty 10m player our directors are working HARD to sign with Zero competition lol
