AC Milan are set to wave goodbye to three big names during the match against Salernitana on Saturday with coach Stefano Pioli and players Olivier Giroud and Simon Kjaer all set to appear for the last time.
As reported by Milan News, Giroud and Kjaer are expected to start the game which will be their last for the club as they both get ready for a new challenge.
They are sure to get a great reception from the San Siro crowd and it will also be the final game for Pioli whose departure is expected to be announced on Friday, meaning he can get a proper farewell from all of the fans.
There is a fresh injury for Mike Maignan which means that Marco Sportiello will continue in goal, whilst the expected back four of Davide Calabria, Kjaer, Fikayo Tomori and Theo Hernandez will be in front of him.
Ismael Bennacer and Tijjani Reijnders are expected to start in the midfield, whilst Ruben Loftus-Cheek returns from injury to be flanked by Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao behind the departing Giroud.
Milan will be looking for a calm victory against the league’s bottom side to round off the season that many fans will want to forget.
Give those guys 45 mins. For the other 45 mins I would like to see Adli and some academy products give a chance.
Lucas Paqueta just been charged in an even more serious betting scandal than Tonali. Tr d to affect the outcome of a match in order to benefit himself. He could be facing serious charges.
I haven’t read anything about that today even though there has been noises in regard of him for a while. Did he bet on his own team losing when you say its more severe ?
He bet that he would get a yellow card apparently
There has been a similar scandal land in the top flight here in Australia this week. With a club captain coordinating yellow cards for himself and some junior players. Getting paid by betting syndicates out of South America.
Personally I have no sympathy for the betting companies. They shouldn’t offer bets on so many in game outcomes. It is asking for trouble IMO.
There should be no bets offered for officials awarding cards. It is so obviously ripe for abuse.
True, but doesn‘t excuse the player.
No , just yellow card betting not his team losing but this have more heavy punishment than tonali because paqueta betting for himself get yellow card. 10 years banned waiting for paqueta
