Donnarumma’s farewell does not seem to have left any aftermath, Pioli restarts from Ibrahimovic, Kessiè and Giroud
In the year of his return to the Champions League, the Devil attaches himself to the Paolo Maldini flag to find in him the essence of the glorious past and trusts in Mr. Stefano Pioli to give shape to a football project that, having found the Europe that counts, can return to roar even in Italy. Not at all shaken by Donnarumma’s farewell and taking note of that of Calhanoglu, Milan kept the bar straight, continuing along the route that, in the last season, led the team to arrive at the safe harbor of second place.
In goal came from Lilla Maignan, certainly not a supporting actor. In attack, the French Giroud has arrived to give a hand to an increasingly well-trained vate and point of reference: certainly not a bet, more a certainty tested on the European fields and certified by the title of world champion. The hope, ever closer and becoming a reality – given that the summer of the transfer market always reserves some surprises -, is the signature on the renewal contract of Kessiè. The player is the fundamental pivot of the project. He knows he is. And the club, in harmony with Mr. Pioli, will do everything to keep him. Ballo Tourè is a young man to try to build on. The renewed loan from Diaz will come in handy, Ilicic and Isco are attacking solutions that Pioli really likes and that would be perfect to replace Calhanoglu. More than solid base, ideas very clear in mind. The team looks forward to the Champions League with appetite, but without ever taking their eyes off the Serie A and its standings. The goal is certainly a top championship. The possible formation, based on the 4-2-3-1 form, would see the use of Maignan, Calabria, Kjaer, Tomori and Hernandez on the defensive line, Bennacer, Kessie, Saelemaekers, Brahim Diaz, Rebic and Ibrahimovic. The Rossoneri chessboard is full of pawns capable of launching the decisive assault. A mix that must be measured and managed, but which can prove to be lethal for any opponent. Given that a last minute shot cannot be ruled out. The Milanese club remains vigilant, and if the opportunity arises it would be ready to seize it.
