GdS: Renewal and role - how Milan plan to fend off Premier League interest in Bartesaghi
"Premier League sides are casting an admiring glance towards Davide Bartesaghi, but AC Milan have a plan to convince him to stay. As La Gazzetta dello Sport write, Bartesaghi is living a personal fairytale that has become the guiding light for many youngsters as they navigate their way from the youth academy to the first team. In his case, aside from a couple of years spent at Atalanta, Davide has gone through every stage of the academy."
"His is a complex role because the left-back spot is a unique, delicate position. Milan still have to contend with the memory of Theo Hernandez's lung-busting runs, before his tires went flat and he went off the road. Of course, Davide is not the same as Theo: they are two different types of players, and two even more different people."
Davide Bartesaghi progressed through AC Milan’s academy, with a brief spell at Atalanta, and now occupies a left-back role cherished by the club. His playing style is less flashy than former full-back Theo Hernandez, yet his performances have attracted attention from top European clubs, notably in the Premier League. Milan consider him a cornerstone for the future and secured his services with a contract extension through 2030. Bartesaghi is perfectly happy where he is. English clubs remain alert, especially Arsenal, and Premier League financial strength increases temptation for Italian teams.
