The Colombian has started the new season like a house on fire and is currently scoring at a better goals-per-minute ratio than even Man City sharpshooter Erling Haaland. The Colombian has started the new season like a house on fire and is currently scoring at a better goals-per-minute ratio than even Man City sharpshooter Erling Haaland. Aston Villa’s cheat code off the bench has netted six goals in 297 minutes spread across nine appearances and he scored the all-important goal that sealed his club’s famous 1-0 victory over Bayern Munich midweek. As a result of his form, Duran has become…
Milan suffered a 2-1 loss in Florence on Sunday night, seeing the Tuscans’ keeper David De Gea save two penalty kicks. He denied Theo Hernandez in the first half and Tammy Abraham in the second half. Milan players decided to change the designated penalty kick taker, given that UMSNT international Pulisic usually shows up from the spot. Fonseca was fuming after the final whistle. He didn’t only complain about referees’ decisions and soft penalty kicks but also raged at his players. During a press conference attended by Football Italia, Fonseca said: “Of course I am upset [that players changed the…
AC Milan will be up against Fiorentina on Sunday evening and according to a report, Paulo Fonseca might not make any changes to the starting XI. Or rather, he will rely on the usual starters in an attempt to make it four consecutive wins. As reported by Gazzetta dello Sport, Fonseca wants to head into the international break with another win in the league, with no dedicated rotation in sight. Alvaro Morata didn’t start against Bayer Leverkusen as he was at 60-70%, but he might be in good enough condition to start tomorrow. Given the injury of Davide Calabria, the…
Santiago Gimenez has been linked with AC Milan and although a move never took place this summer, the player hasn’t given up hope. In a recent interview, he revealed that the Rossoneri tried to sign him and that a move would be a dream. When it was announced that Olivier Giroud would be leaving Milan, several strikers were linked with the club and Gimenez was one of them. The Mexican had also been mentioned in the past and the interest clearly remains, even if the Rossoneri now are focused on Tammy Abraham. Speaking to ESPN, Gimenez revealed that Milan made…
During the summer, AC Milan made attempts to sign Joshua Zirkzee after months of interest in the striker, but they were beaten to his signature by Manchester United. Former Rossonero Ruud Gullit believes this was the wrong move for the striker, though. Milan’s pursuit of Zirkzee began in the early stages of the 2023/24 season, with scouts being sent to watch his game ahead of a potential January move. Eventually, the Rossoneri decided against a move then, instead targeting a move in the summer when they would probably have a new head coach. When the summer rolled around, the Diavolo…
AC Milan added to their midfield in the summer, but there are early signs that the area is incomplete. The Rossoneri have already noticed this, and a deputy to a midfielder has been found. Throughout the 2023/24 season, Milan’s midfield was scrutinised. Hearing about a cycle became a regular occurrence, and it consumed any chances of the Diavolo ending the season successfully. Injuries, depth, quality, structure. Back to front, front to back, Milan struggled with the same four themes on repeat. While they are not struggling with those themes again, they quickly could. Suggestions have been in place about a…

The investigation into the illegal activity of the Curvas and their relationship with Inter and Milan is ways away from having ramifications within the sports justice. However, a major penalty is unlikely because of a recent precedent, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs. Federal prosecutor Giuseppe Chinè will act quickly, but he has yet to receive the documents from the DA’s office. The two clubs might have violated article 25 of the bylaws. It prohibits teams from contributing, with financial support or in other ways, to the constitution and conservation of organized or non-organized supporter groups. Infractions lead to a fine from €10k to €50k.…
Alvaro Morata says he and his family have been forced to move because of safety concerns after a mayor revealed the footballer had bought a house in his town. Morata, 31, joined AC Milan from Atletico Madrid in July. Italian media reported that Morata chose to move to Corbetta – a town 17 miles west of Milan – to ensure privacy for his family. The Spanish striker was furious when the mayor of Corbetta, Marco Ballarini, shared the news of Morata’s arrival on social media on Wednesday. “Dear Mr Mayor, thank you for violating my privacy. Fortunately, I do not…
As reported by Tuttosport in today’s print edition, AC Milan is short-staffed in midfield. With Ismael Bennacer sidelined, the only defensive midfielder in the squad is Youssouf Fofana. The 23-year-old American Johnny Cardoso who currently plays for Real Betis, who was already tracked in the summer, is of interest, but in order to sign him, a non-EU player would have to be sold. Additionally, Betis is unlikely to offer any discounts. Alternatively, Milan could look at Italian or Italian-trained players, and they will need to see if any opportunities arise that the club deems worth pursuing, while staying true to the idea…
