Tuttosport: Diaz celebrates Milan return with inspired display worthy of the No.10

Brahim Diaz is back at Milan and featured in their friendly game against Modena yesterday evening, showing exactly why the Rossoneri brought him back. Indeed, it was a promising ‘first’ display.

As highlighted by today’s edition of Tuttosport (via MilanNews), it took the Spaniard just five minutes to show that he can be important next season. The opponents weren’t the best, but the performance shouldn’t be dismissed because of that.

Just like the season finale, when Stefano Pioli deployed him with greater insistence, the new No.10 responded on the pitch. A goal and an assist crowned his performance yesterday and he also had several nice plays.

It’s clear that the Real Madrid-owned playmaker wants a spot in the starting eleven this season and he might get it. With Milan competing in three competitions, there is no doubt that he will get a good amount of playing time.
