MN: Captaincy issue will not be addressed until mid-July despite #KjaerCapitano pleas

AC Milan have not yet made a decision regarding the captaincy despite the reports that Simon Kjaer is in line to receive it, according to MilanNews.

La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanLive) wrote this morning how Kjaer became a protagonist for what he did during the frightening moments after Christian Eriksen collapsed, which gave rise to the hashtag #KjaerCapitano and it could now become a reality.

MilanNews reports that the #KjaerCapitano hashtag is a legitimate plea on the part of the fans, but inside the locker room there are hierarchies that must be respected and this topic must be addressed calmly and rationally when the whole team is gathered at Milanello.

It must also be mentioned that inside the changing room at Milanello there are other leaders like Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Franck Kessie who – in addition to Kjaer and Davide Calabria – could also lay a claim for wearing the captain’s armband.
