The Crvena Zvezda starlet created Champions League history as he took to the field against AC Milan at the San Siro. The talented teen has had an impressive start to life with the Serbian giants and now he’s earned himself a place in the record books. A midfield sensation, Maksimovic has dethroned Manchester City icon Vincent Kompany. He is now the youngest player in Champions League history to see each of his first five appearances in the competition come as starts. He does so aged 17 years and 188 days, while previous holder Kompany achieved the same feat aged 17…
Antonio D’Ottavio is no longer the sporting director of AC Milan. A dismissal that had been in the air for days but was finalised yesterday; he had been with the club since 2016. The decision, as reported in recent hours, came due to tensions and disagreements with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Jovan Kirovski regarding Milan Futuro. As reported today by Corriere della Sera, he was not a traditional sporting director and, in recent times, he wasn’t even going to Milanello anymore. For his replacement, an internal solution is being considered with two names in the running: Dario Aduasio and Albero Carraro,…
Red Star tonight, Girona on January 22, and Dinamo Zagreb on January 29: these are AC Milan’s final three commitments in the Champions League group stage, and the Rossoneri have a rather “simple” objective, win all three matches and secure a spot in the top eight of the standings. Doing so would allow them to advance directly to the Round of 16 without having to go through the playoffs. It’s doable. This morning, Corriere della Sera reported that Paulo Fonseca’s team must immediately put behind them the recent league defeat away to Atalanta and focus on tonight’s clash at San…
Manchester United reportedly want to sell Andre Onana and replace him with AC Milan’s Mike Maignan. The Cameroonian goalkeeper has had a strong season so far, keeping six clean sheets in the Premier League and making the save of the month in September against Crystal Palace. Despite receiving numerous plaudits, Onana had a disaster of a game last weekend against Nottingham Forest, as he let in a very soft goal and was arguably to blame for another. Spanish outlet Fichajes believe this poor performance has left his future “up in the air” and “his possible departure in the next summer…
Real Madrid secured a 3-2 win over Atalanta on Tuesday (December 10) in the Champions League.

AC Milan could be about to sign another player from Chelsea after bringing in the likes of Christian Pulisic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek from Stamford Bridge. AC Milan signed both Christian Pulisic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek from Chelsea last year, and the former has since gone on to become one of their key players. It now looks like another Chelsea player could be moving to the San Siro after being snubbed by Enzo Maresca this season. Fikayo Tomori is another footballer who left west London for Milan. Tomori recently spoke about his time at Chelsea and how difficult it was not playing…
AC Milan take on Red Star Belgrade tomorrow night, and it is fair to say that their opposition deeply respects the Rossoneri. Despite falling on hard times this season, and maybe you could argue last season too, Milan still have a reputation as one of the best teams in the world. In terms of legacy and quality, few teams rank higher than the Diavolo. Of course, you would be forgiven for not truly believing this after the start that the Rossoneri have had this season, but the point still stands regardless of this. However, this does not make Milan invincible,…
On the eve of AC Milan vs. Red Star Belgrade, we have a good idea of the team that may take to the field tomorrow, however, there are still some decisions to be made. Paulo Fonseca hinted at some changes to be made in his press conference earlier this afternoon, and it seems that decisions are yet to be made in some areas of the pitch with some ballots still remaining. Mike Maignan will remain in between the sticks, as will Matteo Gabbia and Malick Thiaw in front of him, with Theo Hernandez remaining on the left flank, as Milan…
Alabama may have already resolved next year’s opening at punter before this season has even concluded. The Crimson Tide, set to lose 4-year starter James Burnip this offseason, landed a commitment from Colorado School of Mines transfer specialist Blake Doud. The talented punter took to social media to make his announcement. Doud is currently a redshirt junior, so he will have just a single year of eligibility left. “I want to express my deepest gratitude to my coaches, teammates, and the entire Oredigger community,” Doud wrote in his post, “Thank you for your support, memories, and encouragement throughout my journey…
It’s not a complete revenge for their elimination from last year’s NBA playoffs elimination, but the Oklahoma City Thunder got the better of the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday. The Thunder advanced to the semifinals of the NBA Cup by stifling the Dallas Mavericks in a 118-104 home win. They will face the winner of the Wednesday’s quarterfinal between the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets. The win started and ended as a mostly miserable day at the gym for Mavericks star Luka Dončić, which has become a recurring story for the Thunder, owners of the league’s top defensive rating. The…
