By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan have Aster Vranckx’s impact to thank as his energy made a big difference in the 2-1 win over Fiorentina last night, a report has claimed.

MilanNews recall how Vranckx came on in the 75th minute in place of Rade Krunic and it was from the Belgian that the cross started which then resulted in Nikola Milenkovic’s decisive own goal in added time at the end of the 90 minutes.

Beyond this single incident, the young midfielder’s impact in the middle of the park was important in terms of quality and character, continuing the positive signs that we have seen in his cameos so far given Stefano Pioli has only played him on a handful of occasiosn

Against Fiorentina, in the moment of greatest need, the Rossoneri coach focused on him and he responded with a good performance, with the player himself admitting after the game that the World Cup break will be useful for adapting further.

“I’m training and learning a lot, I want to learn even more. We have a break, there will be a little vacation and then I will continue to train so as not to lose shape,” he said.

After the end of the match, Sandro Tonali’s words at the press conference were also very positive, as he praised the young Belgian.

“Aster has always been a guy who is available in everything, he’s been inside since day one; he deserves to play and to live these emotions like someone who always plays. Good person and good guy, as well as a great player,” he said.

Having arrived on loan with an option to buy from Wolfsburg in the summer, Vranckx now wants to show that he has what it takes to become a permanent Milan player.
