To be precise, right now the only position he can play is CF because on Pioli's system the RW and LW have to press a lot. Right now Leao cannot bench Rebic, Sale-boy or even Castillejo. Though, as you said we have to give him a pass because he is not at the right fitness level.

You know not everyone can remeber when zlatan was Leaos age. But stats dont lie.

The earliest stats Zlatan has was from 01/02 so he was 20/21 that season. He scored 6 goals in Eredivisie.


Leao was 20/21 last season although he was really 20 because he turned 21 after covid but lets jsut say 20/21. he scored 6 goals in serie a that season.

Milan finished 6th with 63 goals for last season.
Ajax finished first with 73 goals in the 01/02 season.

Just have a think about that for a second before you give leao a hard time.

I wish we would commit to making Leao a CF. Wingers and SS are a dime a dozen, but CFs with his attributes are rare. He’s got good size and speed, he needs to pack on a little weight, but he’s got the frame to do it.

Of course we are getting Haaland

Khediras contract with Juve could be terminated. If Juve have to pay him out he might be willing to sign for nothing. He would make a good CB/CDM cover if his wages are between 1 and 2 mill. Plus he is a world cup winner.

That could be because of lack of funds but could also be lack of negotiating skills/experience. We don't know so it is difficult to say if he failed his objectives or not.





If Tonali is to be used in double pivot, he must have someone with great defensive capabilities next to him. Someone that can compensate for his lack of defensive capabilities so that he can be more involved in the attack phase.

God what I wouldn't have given to see Baka next to him...

Damn you Rino!

Gazidis literally said it in the video interview. And he's maldini's boss.

I have a question for everyone.

Firstly I know through friends that doping is pretty prevalent in the UFC. I mean you only need to look at Adesanya to know this.

But how prevalent is doping in Football.

EXCLUSIVE MN - From England, Kinsella: "Milan, that's why Rudiger and Bakayoko didn't arrive. In January ..."

To comment on the negotiations for Rudiger and Bakayoko, both unsuccessful, between Milan and Chelsea, the editorial staff of MilanNews.it contacted exclusively Nizaar Kinsella , Goal.com correspondent for Chelsea and everything else that orbits the world Blues . These are the questions and answers:

In the last hours of the transfer market, Milan, looking for a central defender, tried for Rudiger. What has been said in England about this possible deal?

“On the player there were Tottenham, West Ham, Barcelona and PSG, with Milan and Roma moving a bit behind the others. Milan wanted to try with a loan with the right of redemption, but there were several problems. First of all, the player's salary, who at Chelsea gets 100 thousand pounds a week (about 5 million euros a year, ed). The modality of the deal was also to be discussed: the eventual right of redemption should have been very high, and in any case Chelsea would have wanted an obligation. The first idea of ​​Abrahmovic's club was to sell the player outright, but due to the Coronavirus emergency there are many clubs that have economic problems: Milan is no exception and this has not allowed a possible deal to go to successful".

Can Rudiger leave Chelsea in January?

“Yes, without a doubt he can leave Chelsea in January. Among the clubs that were interested in the German defender, many have already found an alternative: Tottenham and West Ham should take a defender from the Championship, Barcelona instead will try again for Eric Garcia of Manchester City. Therefore, in January both Milan and PSG could be possible destinations for Rudiger, but it is also true that other interested clubs could arrive ".

Throughout the summer there have been contacts between Milan and Chelsea for Tiemoue Bakayoko without ever reaching a definitive agreement. What happened?

“Also for Bakayoko the situation was similar to Rudiger's. There was also PSG on the player but in the end he went to Napoli. Chelsea asked for an obligation to redeem while AC Milan offered only one right, in an operation similar to that of 2018. Milan really wanted to bring Bakayoko back to Italy but not under the conditions of Chelsea, who asked for a lot of money. The Blues have taken the midfielder from Monaco for 40 million pounds, and when Chelsea negotiate the sale of their player they always want to collect a figure close to what they spent. They asked Milan for 30-32 million pounds for a player who hasn't been doing very well lately, which is why an agreement has not been reached. In the end, Milan went to other goals, Napoli arrived when there was no one left and managed to strike a pretty good deal. A dry loan for about 5 million euros, with no right or obligation to redeem. Milan perhaps moved too early for him ".

Apart from Rudiger and Bakayoko, have there been contacts between Milan and Chelsea for other players as well?

"No, there were no discussions between the two clubs for other players."

This season is the first time in history we don't have the number 9 shirt assigned.

CEO of club that pays his wages praises said club.

In other news, water is wet.

In all honesty tho, the Milan brand has potential. But it is a brand that is mostly associated with history now. The truth may hurt a bit, but the reality is that the likes of City and PSG have stronger brands in current times despite not having said history.

At the end of the day, it's results on the pitch and regular CL football that matters. Social media is what nowadays builds strong brands and Milan has been a nonfactor for most of the social media age. I mean, the last time we were in the CL, Snapchat was just starting off, Instagram was still small, and tiktok did not exist. Most of what folks nowadays associate with Milan is past glories, and the fans do the same.

So yes, there is definitiely potential for the Milan brand to become popular again but we are not there yet. Not until we become serious CL contenders.
