Sky: New midfielder could arrive as Pioli considers change in formation

Confirmations have arrived that AC Milan boss Stefano Pioli is considering the switch to a three-man midfield, and a new player for that position could arrive.

According to what is being reported by Sky (via MilanEye), Pioli is pondering the move to playing three in midfield in the coming games, given that at present the team seem to be struggling to find the right balance in both phases.

Moreover, the potential exit of Tiemoue Bakayoko could actually unlock the incoming market for the Rossoneri, as the broadcaster claims that Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara could then go for a new midfielder to replace the Frenchman.

However, if the Chelsea loanee were to remain at the club beyond the end of the month and reject any offers that might come his way, no signings will be sought in the winter mercato and any planned moves will then be postponed until the summer.
