Photo: Three in, where else needs fixing – Allegri’s new look Milan so far

16 hours ago 28

This summer, AC Milan are certainly being busy. There have been four signings made so far, and there are further plans to add more.

In a mercato where Milan needed somewhat of a reset, work has been going. Fast or slow is a debate in itself, but parts are moving and the Rossoneri are trying to create a competitive team within their means of doing so.

Theo Hernandez and Tijjani Reijnders’ sales have provided a platform for investment, and there are further purchases planned after the arrivals of Samuele Ricci, Luka Modric and Pervis Estupinan. In fact, another striker, midfielder and right-back are sought.

The Allegrian plan

For now, though, we can get a gist of what the Allegrian Rossoneri may look like, and there are some subtle differences expected, as seen below from Gazzetta dello Sport.

Mike Maignan, Fikayo Tomori and Strahinja Pavlovic remain at the back, whilst Estupinan and Alexis Saelemaekers are expected on the flanks. For what it’s worth, the latter may change.

Youssouf Fofana will be the only survivor in midfield, for now, with Ricci and Modric also coming into the mix. Leading the line, it will be the same as last season for now: Christian Pulisic, Santiago Gimenez and the centre-piece, Rafael Leao. Though, another striker is hoped for.
