Journalist Carlo Pellegatti has suggested that AC Milan should look into bringing Yunus Musah back as a deputy for the right side.
After a summer spent with an uncertain fate as several midfielders arrived, Musah headed to Atalanta on a €4m loan with €25m option to buy. Yet, the USA international is struggling to find playing time, and the change of head coach does not appear to have transformed his fortunes.
Musah has played just six league games (145 minutes in total, 90 of which were for Milan against Lecce). He has four Champions League appearances, and one in the Coppa Italia. Excluding the 114 minutes he played under Massimiliano Allegri, he has only played 200 minutes this season.
Pellegatti took to his YouTube channel to share his thoughts ahead of tonight’s match between Torino and Milan, and as part of that also revealed an idea he has come up with for the right wing-back role.
“I’ll tell you right away that my answer is yes. Would you take a player who is currently out of the Atalanta project? So would you rush Musah back as an alternative to Saelemaekers?
“I repeat. My answer is yes, he never plays in Bergamo. I think someone like Yunus, I repeat as a back-up for Alexis, would give me peace of mind…”
