Prior to the defeat against Parma last weekend, Milan had only lost one game: the opening round against Cremonese at San Siro. Davide Nicola's men made the most of two chances, more or less, to win 1-2 and shock the Rossoneri in front of their home crowd.
According to Calciomercato.com, while Terracciano might end up staying at Cremonese, Bondo will return to Milan at the end of the season. He will then start training with the first team during pre-season, hoping to convince Massimiliano Allegri to keep him in the squad.
Serie A giants Juventus have initiated contact for Leon Goretzka as the race for the German midfielder's signature begins to heat up ahead of a potential free transfer this summer. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Bianconeri have established initial ties with the player's entourage to explore the feasibility of a deal.
As Milan confirmed on their official website in the past few minutes, here are the dates and times for the Matchdays 28 to 30. Matchday 28, AC Milan v Inter: Sunday 8 March at 20:45 CET (DAZN); Matchday 29, Lazio v AC Milan: Sunday 15 March at 20:45 CET (DAZN); Matchday 30, AC Milan v Torino: Saturday 21 March at 18:00 CET (DAZN).
The front line has been an issue for Milan all season; there can be no denying that. Whether it has been injuries, bad form or a mix of both, Allegri has rarely had the luxury of a front two without question.
AC Milan continues to move with extreme foresight when it comes to contract renewals, aiming to consolidate the backbone of the team. According to journalist Nicolò Schira, one of the names that Milan are working on is Pietro Terracciano, who is currently the deputy to the starter and captain Mike Maignan. In fact, the management have now finalised the details for extending the player's contract.
It was a lightning negotiation, closed on the last day of the market. My agent suddenly called me saying, 'We have to take a jet to Milan right away'. I remember the interview with Pippo Inzaghi in his office on the first day in Milanello. He was supposed to show me some slides on how to move around the field, but he spoke in Italian. I didn't understand anything.
Milan will lineup for the derby without Rabiot in the midfield, and with Massimiliano Allegri willing to risk it, it certainly opens up a question about how the Frenchman will approach this game. However, others are at risk for the derby.
Several errors Today, Gazzetta dello Sport have re-capped the different events that have made differences, and it starts with the second match day of the season, where Matteo Gabbia had a goal ruled out in similar fashion to Troilo's winner for Parma at the weekend. Additionally, there was the penalty incident where Samuele Ricci was brought down, had that decision gone the Rossoneri's way, perhaps they would have won 4-0 that day.
Rabiot, as Gazzetta dello Sport wrote this morning, is not clear for the derby, and another yellow card would see him miss what may be the biggest game left of the season. So, the game against Cremonese, as we thought, would have been an easy chance to keep him safe.
Rather than a standard photoshoot or flashy video launch, the Rossoneri instead had Christian Pulisic and his teammates emerge from the tunnel wearing the bright red uniform, which has been designed in collaboration with Italian streetwear label Slam Jam. Inspired by Milan's kits of the late 1990s and early 2000s, the kit features an era-appropriate shiny metallic fabric that glistened beneath the floodlights.
It was a gamble behind Estupinan's back, but Bartesaghi has amply demonstrated his status and his role as an important player in this and the future of Milan. This is why the club has already scheduled talks regarding his contract renewal. Milan have every intention of rewarding Bartesaghi financially by increasing his salary. They have every intention of rejecting the Premier League's concrete advances: several calls, several contacts, but Milan are counting on Bartesaghi.
At 40 years of age, Modric can't physiologically have the dynamism of a 30-year-old, but he's still a player who moves a lot. Also because his role dictates it, a filtering outpost in front of the defence even before being the main man in the build-up. Modric runs, chases, plays alongside, tackles, anticipates, occupies space (nine times out of ten, the right ones, obviously), and, above all, he plays. He plays a lot.
AC Milan are interested in signing Moise Kean this summer, and a report has claimed that Francesco Camarda could be part of the negotiations. In January, AC Milan signed German striker Niclas Fullkrug on loan with an option to buy from West Ham, but are targeting a new centre-forward in the upcoming summer transfer window. According to Tuttosport (via Calciomercato.com), Massimiliano Allegri wants Moise Kean.
AC Milan have published a video which teases the upcoming launch of the fourth shirt in collaboration with PUMA and Slam Jam. It was reported last month that Milan would be releasing yet another fourth kit, and continuing their trend of teaming up with fashion brands for it. Some more details emerged regarding the colour schemes, and the club hinted on Saturday that those leaks are indeed correct.
In the final days of the January window, AC Milan secured the promising Serie B talent Alphadjo Cissè, a signing that Peppe Di Stefano believes is reminiscent of the old Milan. The transfer was announced on the final day of the window and in the statement, it was confirmed that the attacking midfielder would remain at Catanzaro on loan. Then, in the summer, he will be at Massimiliano Alleghri's disposal at least for the pre-season.
Inter are on a very strong run, and with 13 games left, at an average of two points per game, they're over 90. 88/90. So, for us to get to 90, from 54, we need to get 36 points, meaning 12 wins and one defeat. If Inter were to fall behind, and we fail to capitalise on their mistakes, that's our responsibility, but Inter are the clear favourites for the Scudetto.
