We couldn’t have asked for too much more from the start of the season, and Regis Le Bris has seemingly put in a lot of work over the international break with the players who weren’t away on international duty, at least. Wilson Isidor came on at Portsmouth and impressed, while we’ll also likely see Chris Mepham added to the 18 today, as well as Milan Aleksic and Dan Neil, who’s back from suspension. And it’s Neil who I think provides Le Bris with his biggest selection dilemma today. Will he come straight back into the team today, or will he…
Tottenham are reportedly willing to pay in the region of £17million for AC Milan forward Noah Okafor, as Ange Postecoglou is looking for attackers for the January transfer window. Spurs currently have seven attackers in their first-team squad. The biggest name is Heung-min Son, and he has been joined by a couple of new signings in Dominic Solanke and Wilson Odobert of late, along with the other players already at Spurs’ disposal. But after three games this term, and only one win, the north London outfit reportedly want more options. Indeed, Milan Live suggests Tottenham have ‘started…
When it comes to legendary goal-scorers, Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s name is certainly in the conversation. The Swedish striker, who hung up his boots in 2023 at the age of 41, netted 580 goals across a remarkable 24-year career, ranking him 14th on the all-time scoring list. Only a select few players have outscored Ibrahimovic, who made his mark in some of the world’s top leagues. With his incredible ability to find the back of the net and his vast experience, Ibrahimovic is more than qualified to weigh in on who he believes is the greatest player in soccer history. Having played…
Juventus returns to the Champions League this season, kicking off their campaign next week with a match against PSV. The new competition format will see the Bianconeri facing several teams in a format that has replaced the traditional home-and-away setup during the group stages. Exciting home games and challenging away trips lie ahead for Juventus. They are expected to compete strongly and aim to finish the league stages well enough to advance to the knockout rounds. Juventus reached the final of the UCL in 2015 and 2017, but their recent progress in the competition has been less impressive. Understandably, they…
Venezia midfielder Gianluca Busio is expecting a tough game against AC Milan at San Siro on Saturday night, but also sees it as an opportunity to prove they belong in the top flight. The Venetians make the trip to San Siro having had a tough start to the season with games against Lazio, Fiorentina and Torino which have yielded just one point from nine, but there were positives to take in the latter two games including a 0-0 draw with La Viola. They face a Milan side that are having a confidence crisis after also having failed to win in their opening…
It’s said that there are a couple of major factors that have influenced the slow sales. SempreMilan reports that there is a real lack of enthusiasm for the season, stemming from the appointment of Fonseca to the start of the season. Milan were held to a 2-2 draw against Torino in their first Serie A game before losing at Parma and drawing at Lazio. They have scored five goals in those matches, albeit conceding another six. Prices for the game against Liverpool are also much higher. The remaining tickets for the match – not including hospitality seats – range…
Liverpool travel to face AC Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday, but there is a possibility that the game could be played in front of thousands of empty seats. The Reds kickstart their league phase campaign with a trip to San Siro – a ground they haven’t lost at since 1965. Arne Slot’s side have made a perfect start to their Premier League season, having won each of their opening three matches. The Reds are also yet to concede a single goal and return to action after the international break when they entertain Nottingham Forest at Anfield on…
Lazio coach Marco Baroni could hand Mario Gila his seasonal debut on Monday when the team hosts Hellas Verona at the Stadio Olimpico.

Lazio Defender Mario Gila Hoping to Get the Nod vs Verona Gila has now fully recovered and is pushing for a starting role alongside Alessio Romagnoli at the expense of Patric. There could also be a duel for the right-back slot, with Adam Marusic considered…
AC Milan head coach Paulo Fonseca responded to the advice and suggestions that he was given by Maurizio Sarri and Zvonimir Boban regarding the formation he is using. In case you missed it during the week, the former Napoli and Chelsea boss Sarri stated his belief that Ruben Loftus-Cheek performs best in a box-to-box midfield role, otherwise called a No.8 or a ‘mezzala’ in Italy. Meanwhile, Boban – who worked at Milan until being fired a few years ago – also suggested that Fonseca should use a three-man midfield because of the characteristics of the players currently in the squad…
Barbara Berlusconi, daughter of former AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi and ex-CEO of the club, has spoken out about the ongoing saga surrounding the future of San Siro stadium in Milan. Her comments come in the wake of a meeting between Inter, Milan, and the Milan City Council, where the clubs rejected a renovation proposal for the current stadium. Berlusconi expressed her frustration with the situation, stating, “The stadium affair is humiliating for a city like Milan, which is a symbol of modernity and innovation and has always been ahead of its time. It’s a true Italian comedy, deliberately…
