Rafael Leao has superstar potential, and AC Milan are well aware of this. In fact, everyone in football is. Unlocking that potential has proved difficult though. When it comes to players like Leao, the finest margins often are the difference. Small changes can alter a career path significantly, and this has often been seen with Leao, especially recently. Just a few months ago, the winger was asking his agent to look for January moves, but that seems like an impossible thought now. The winger played a substantial part in the Supercoppa Italiana success, providing two assists in the 3-2 comeback…
Milan have reportedly rejected an opening offer from RB Leipzig for Noah Okafor. Transfer expert Matteo Moretto claims that Milan rejected an opening loan offer from RB Leipzig for Okafor, which included an option to buy. According to the report, Leipzig proposed an option to buy for around €10-12m, but the Rossoneri expect a higher fee. Corriere dello Sport has reported that Okafor is registered for €11m at Milan, so any sale below that fee would affect the club financially. It is understood that the Rossoneri are willing to continue talks with Leipzig as they are determined to sell either…
Alexis Saelemaekers is a player of interest to several parties currently and AC Milan are, of course, one of those with him performing well on loan. It has been a difficult season for Saelemaekers, given he has spent most of the season sidelined. Upon his return though, he has proved that he has been worth waiting for, and with two contributions in the Rome derby, AS Roma are infatuated. A goal and an assist are not the only reasons to fall in love with the Belgian. His performances offer something that has often been lacking for the Roman club in…
Chelsea’s frantic transfer windows have seen their squad undergo major turnovers in recent seasons, with Todd Boehly continuing to open his chequebook for the Premier League giants – and Fabrizio Romano has revealed in his GIVEMESPORT transfer newsletter that the Blues could even look to add two more names to their squad in January, with the potential of a third if Christopher Nkunku leaves. The Blues sit fourth in the Premier League, but they haven’t won in four games, which has seen Arsenal and Nottingham Forest creep ahead of them in the table, but they remain in fourth by a…
Noah Okafor has seemingly been heading away from AC Milan this January, but it could be possible that he remains due to Sergio Conceicao. It has been a fantastic start to life in Milan for Conceicao. The Portuguese head coach has already won the Supercoppa, and to many, it could be the start of a return to something special. However, the coach just wants to focus on one thing at a time, rather than getting carried away by two games. Part of the reason why so many people have bought into the coach is to do with his mannerisms. However,…
In recent years, the Italian National Team has lacked an AC Milan presence regularly, but that could be about to change, with the Rossoneri having Azzurri targets. Before Matteo Gabbia’s call-up to the senior side in 2024, many reports and fans questioned the lack of an Italian presence in the Milan squad. After all, the two have often been heavily interlinked with many of the nation’s greats also representing the Diavolo. Nevertheless, the look has always been to the future. Among the Futuro ranks are several starlets that could ply their trade for the Azzurri one day: Francesco Camarda, Mattia…
Sergio Conceicao has already entered the hearts of AC Milan fans by winning a trophy after two games, but it could have all been very different. According to what is being reported by SudInfo (via La Gazzetta dello Sport), Conceiçao was close to signing for the Belgian national team in December, who were looking – and apparently still are looking – for a replacement for Domenico Tedesco. The Belgian source even claim that taking the job would have guaranteed him a salary more or less double what he has been earning in these six months at Milan. The deal didn’t…
After dropping five straight games with multiple players out due to illness or injuries, the Dallas Mavericks have finally cracked the win column with a blowout 118-97 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night. This win not only solidified that the Mavericks are not in panic mode but it put fans’ worries at ease with an impressive showing on both ends of the floor. On Monday night against the Memphis Grizzlies, Daniel Gafford suffered a sprained ankle, and Dallas was without him for Tuesday’s matchup against the Lakers. However, despite the team’s slew of bad luck when it…
The seventh-seeded Green Bay Packers (11-6) are still figuring out if they will have starting quarterback Jordan Love (elbow) at the second-seeded Philadelphia Eagles (14-3) on Sunday afternoon for their NFC wild-card game. “Yeah, he was limited,” Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday when asked if Love was able to throw in practice. “Yeah, on a limited basis.” After saying “yes” postgame after suffering an elbow injury in Week 18 against the Chicago Bears, Love was a little less certain about his game status for Sunday when asked again about it Wednesday. He said the numbness in his hand…
Inter Milan loanee Sebastiano Esposito has laid the groundwork for his maiden call-up for the senior Italy national team. According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, Luciano Spalletti is considering including the Empoli starlet in his squad for upcoming March fixtures. Esposito has excelled during his loan spell at Empoli this season. Indeed, the 22-year-old has been Gli Azzurri’s standout performer, scoring seven goals and assisting one in 17 Serie A games. Furthermore, he has hauled two goals in the Coppa Italia, helping Empoli set up a quarter-final tie against Juventus. As the leader of Roberto D’Aversa’s team, Esposito could soon join…
