The AC Milan management remain convinced by Zion Suzuki having watched him first-hand on Saturday, a report claims.
As Calciomercato.com recall, it was a four-goal thriller at the Stadio Tardini between Parma and Milan, with the home side battling from two goals down to earn a draw. Mike Maignan and Suzuki were not satisfied with their individual performances, as both feel they could have done better.

Milan have no doubts
Despite not being satisfied, it seems that Milan were. Suzuki is establishing himself as one of the most exciting prospects in the world of goalkeeping thanks to his extraordinary physical and athletic ability, and a certain explosiveness between the posts.
He has been targeted by Bayern Munich, several Premier League clubs, and Milan. He let in two goals and could have maybe done better with Alexis Saelemaekers’ opener, but Geoffrey Moncada, Igli Tare and Zlatan Ibrahimovic ‘remain convinced’ his is the ‘right player’ to potentially replace Maignan.
Suzuki has significant and obvious room for improvement. For example, he must work on his concentration throughout the 90 minutes of play, and his mind games with Leao didn’t work. Yet, the Rossoneri are interested and will follow him this season, though they are considering other options too.
To bring Suzuki to Italy from Urawa Red Diamonds last year, Parma invested €7.5m, with a potential additional €2.5m in bonuses tied to personal and team objectives. The agreement also includes a 10% resale clause. Now, Parma would want at least €25m to even consider selling the 23-year-old.
He looked like Maignan. Had a few good saves, got injured…
He looked horrendous for the most part.
Yes, he was absolutely terrible in this match. Should have stopped Saleamakers goal. Fumbled a couple other routine saves. Really impressive I guess?
He sucks badly
He’s nothing special, honestly. Especially when you compare him with Carnesecchi for example.
That below was a reply to you.
Maybe the asking price. Carne will be quite expensive.
Lol whaaaat? He was awful. Go look at Salaemakers goal. It was so close to him he just has poor focus. Bad keeper. Awful choice.
This can only be a feint. Even I could see he is weak in contact with the ball and forgets he is not a spectator.
The bit I saw of Torriani laat season ooked far more developed.
Maybe we bring back Giroud in goal?
His numbers are like you took Maignan and copy pasted it. From % of saves to everything. Except passing, here he is more precise than Maignan. I’m sure the scouting team didn’t check anything, they are buying because they like his hair. Of course it’s a “feint”. Omg
Did they watch the game?
