As pointed out by Tuttosport (via Milan News), Stefano Pioli could decide to use a 4-3-3 formation when the new Serie A season gets underway, rather than the tried and tested 4-2-3-1.
The transfer moves from Milan so far this summer suggest that there could be more focus on deeper-lying midfielders rather than players that could directly replace Brahim Diaz.
This lends itself to a 4-3-3 formation given there will be Ismael Bennacer, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Tommaso Pobega, Rade Krunic and potentially Tijjani Reijnders in the squad, none of which naturally play behind the striker.
Milan have got a friendly against Lumezzane on Thursday and that could be the first clear sign as to what formation Piioli has been working towards in training with his team over the past few weeks.
