AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli has become reliant on his left side to generate attacking output, and that could be addressed in the market, a report claims.
Calciomercato.com report how so far this season Davide Calabria has 2 goals and 2 assists, Alessandro Florenzi has 1 goal, 1 goal and 3 assists for Saelemaekers, 4 goals for Messias. Total: 8 goals and 5 assists.
That is why work should be done on the market to address the lack of balance in the attack given that Rafael Leao alone has 11 goals and 6 assists without factoring in Theo Hernandez’s output. Renato Sanches looks set to sign, while Yacine Adli and Tommaso Pobega will return from loans.
There is interest in Noa Lang who Club Brugge value at €25m, and Tottenham’s Steven Bergwijn who is the same price. Then there is Domenico Berardi, a very difficult target but certainly the best out there given he has double figures in goals and assists this season. He would cost €30m or more.
At the moment Milan has no plans to accelerate on the new winger front, but they are aware that something must be done to address the right side.
