The Rossoneri summer has two main objectivesaccording to what Tuttosport writes today: the first is that of find a new center forward of level; the second is that of take the path of balance again after a season that ended in eleventh place among Serie A defenses. To do so, a important marketespecially in midfield, but also trust in the work that Fonseca will bring.
Double name
Stefano Pioli’s last Milan, that of this last season, too many times was the protagonist of matches with pyrotechnic results, the result of aoften disconnected square between midfield and defense who was unable to contain the opponents’ counterattacks. And it is also for this reason, as Tuttosport recalls, that he was hired Paulo Fonseca who has the reputation of having a more balanced attitude, while maintaining the offensive inspiration. To help him, the club will have to make important resources available: in particular it will do so in midfield, where neither Kessie, nor Tonali nor Krunic were adequately replaced. At the moment the two possible names for this role, alternatives to each otherare those of Youssouf Fofana and Mats Wieffer. The first – who is the favorite – will leave the Monk during the summer, as already announced: the opportunity is tempting because expires in 2025 and therefore you can get a reduced price. However, there is a lot of competition and we have to wait for the end of the European Championship in France. The Dutchman from Feyenoord is the immediate alternative.
The Musah card
As mentioned, it is unlikely that Milan will be able to sign both players or in any case they will hardly move for two midfielders. Therefore Fonsec will have to build the reserve for the new at home defensive midfielder. According to Tuttosport’s vision, the most suitable player for this role would be Yunus Musah who in his young career has shown that he has great adaptability and that he has the physical and technical characteristics to fill that role, especially if disciplined by someone who knows how to historically deal with the most immature talents. Pioli used the American more as an insertion weapon and often used him on the wing: Fonseca would like to move him back and make him grow in the role of breakwater, a position he often holds with his national team as well. For this reason, he continues Tuttosport in recent weeks offers for Musah have been rejected which, on the contrary, remains at the center of the Rossoneri project.
