Christian Pulisic was back in action for Milan last night, playing more than just a few minutes in the friendly against Virtus Entella. Along with the derby, this was the main focus of Gazzetta dello Sport this morning.
Pulisic played the full 90 minutes against the Serie B side, as did Ardon Jashari, and can thus be considered ready for the derby against Inter. This is obviously a huge boost for Milan, who have struggled with finding the best partner for Rafael Leao in attack lately.
While Corriere dello Sport and Tuttosport didn’t mention Milan on the front pages, Gazzetta dello Sport did. The pink newspaper focused on Pulisic and the Scudetto on the front page, while also highlighting the derby and an interview with Simon Kjaer inside the paper.
Gazzetta dello Sport’s headlines
The front page
🔙 “Milan, Pulisic is back. He will start with Leao. ‘Here is why I believe in the Scudetto’.”
Focus on Pulisic
🤝 “Max’s man. Pulisic knows how to beat Inter: ‘Our goal is the Scudetto’.”
👀 “The American hasn’t lost in five derbies, he’s back from injury and will start alongside Leao.”
Kjaer interview
❤ “Kjaer’s push: ‘Now I recognise the real Milan. Modric and Rabiot have brought experience, perhaps an underrated quality’.”
