It feels like AC Milan are never far away from a must-win game, and that applies to the midweek fixture against Red Star in the Champions League. After Friday night’s defeat against Atalanta further complicated the quest to climb the table in Serie A, Milan would probably like to get back on the field in league action. However, as Corriere della Sera (via MilanPress) writes, they must divert their attention back to Europe. Indeed, the Rossoneri face high-flying Red Star (who have won all but one league game this season) at San Siro on Wednesday night at 21:00 CET. Milan…
Emerson Royal has not had the easiest time since joining AC Milan, but Brazil and Rossoneri legend Cafu has offered him some supportive words. When it was revealed that Milan were tracking Emerson, there was an initial backlash, and this only grew when it was announced that the club were serious about signing the Tottenham Hotspur defender. Since arriving, he has been rather up-and-down, with performances inconsistent. However, he has shown occasionally that he may be a bargain, especially against Inter, where reports suggested that his signing had balanced the squad. The Diavolo will probably be active in the right-back…
Chukwuemeka could do well to choose Milan as his next destination as the Rossoneri have previously done well to revive the careers of other Blues misfits. Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Christian Pulisic, Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham are all former Chelsea players currently on the books at Milan, while Olivier Giroud also previously shone with the Serie A giants after his move from west London. Chukwuemeka should get more playing time there and that could be the ideal next step for the 21-year-old to get his promising career back on track. Several other talented young English footballers have done the same, and…
This morning’s print edition of the daily Turin-based newspaper, Tuttosport, talked about Filippo Terracciano. The former Hellas Verona left-back, in fact, may have to leave the club already as he is not getting much playing time under the guidance of head coach Paulo Fonseca since Theo Hernandez is the absolute starter. The 21-year-old is liked in Serie A, especially by Empoli. The Serbian centre-forward who is 26 years of age is not included in the UEFA Champions League squad list. In Serie A, he only made 3 appearances. He played for a total of 78 minutes without scoring any goals.…
Chelsea midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka has reportedly agreed terms on a transfer to AC Milan, though a deal is not done yet. The Blues will surely be looking to offload Chukwuemeka soon after his lack of playing time under Enzo Maresca this season, with Milan looking like a good possible destination for him. Celtic are also said to be interested in the England Under-20 international, but it looks like Milan are in pole position for this deal as the player has already said yes to making the move to the San Siro, according to Calciomercato. Chukwuemeka once looked like a hugely…

Milan coach Paulo Fonseca could start Ruben Loftus-Cheek as an attacking midfielder against Crvena Zvezda to replace the injured Christian Pulisic or play Alvaro Morata and Tammy Abraham simultaneously. The Rossoneri must deal with Pulisic’s calf injury, and after the American star’s medical tests on Monday, they will have a rough idea of his recovery time. Milan trained on Sunday at Milanello, preparing for a Champions League match against Crvena Zvezda. As reported by Sky Sport Italia and Milannews, Fonseca has two options to replace the ex-Chelsea star. Pulisic has played mainly as an attacking midfielder for Milan this season,…
AC Milan chief Zlatan Ibrahimovic says he’s happy in his current role. The Swede admits entering coaching isn’t for him. He told Sports Illustrated DE: “You have to cover so many areas, find ideas and solutions, prepare and follow the matches, coach. “You have to work day and night. A year as a coach would seem like ten to me. “It’s too much work for me, it doesn’t appeal to me.”
Legendary former AC Milan coach Arrigo Sacchi feels Inter Milan are more than capable of winning the FIFA Club World Cup. Sacchi particularly hailed the Nerazzurri’s “quality and experience” speaking to the Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. Next summer, Inter will participate in a newly-expanded Club World Cup. The Nerazzurri are one of two teams from Serie A in the competition, along with Juventus. In the meantime, Inter have plenty of other important matches to think about. The Nerazzurri face a tough battle to retain their Serie A title at the moment. And then they will hope to make another…
Fans on social media have shared their reactions to Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr teammate Talisca being left out from their starting XI against Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League. The match is currently ongoing at King Abdullah Sport City. Al-Nassr’s starting line-up against Al-Ittihad includes Bento, Sultan Al-Ghannam, Mohamed Simakan, Aymeric Laporte, Nawaf Boushal, Abdullah Al-Khaibari, Marcelo Brozović, Ângelo Gabriel, Otávio, Sadio Mané, and Cristiano Ronaldo. Talisca isn’t in the matchday squad for the Knights of Najd’s 13th Saudi Pro League clash. The Brazilian forward missed three matches for Cristiano Ronaldo’s side due to muscular problems in November and returned to…
