CM: Nkunku silences critics and rumours with third goal in two - Allegri's hope
"As Calciomercato.com write, Nkunku's return to the pitch after a two-week layoff due to an ankle injury - one that sustained late in the match against Hellas Verona - coincided with his third goal in Serie A since arriving. His 90th-minute strike earned Milan a valuable point in their tough trip to Florence and extended the unbeaten run to 18 games, meaning that it has lasted since the second half of the season after losing in round one."
"Having overcome the challenges of a difficult adjustment to Italian football, compounded by repeated physical setbacks, Nkunku is starting to respond to the strong criticism. It started with his brace in the 3-0 win against Hellas Verona on December 28, but he had to sit out the two games that followed. Above all, Nkunku has reaffirmed his full commitment to repaying the faith of Milan, who invested €38m plus bonuses to sign him."
Nkunku returned from a two-week layoff caused by an ankle injury sustained late against Hellas Verona and scored a 90th-minute goal that earned Milan a point in Florence. The strike extended Milan's unbeaten run to 18 matches, a sequence ongoing since the second half of the season. Nkunku had previously scored a brace in a 3-0 win over Verona but missed the following two games. Milan paid €38m plus bonuses to sign him, and Nkunku stated he wants to stay despite reported Fenerbahce interest. Nkunku aims to repay Milan's faith, win more starts, and attract Didier Deschamps' attention ahead of the World Cup.
