The new Milan coach has clear ideas, he must stay despite the difficulties of this summer.
Second place of the Milan in the 2023/2024 season puts the Rossoneri in an uncomfortable situation for the next seasons. On the one hand, also considering the overwhelming power of Inter, who won with almost 20 points away from the second, the Rossoneri’s year can be considered positive.
On the other hand, however, this second place could turn out to be a double-edged sword, forcing the management to make a high-level transfer market to try to return to the top of the table and, why not, even play a Champions League important, even if the coffers are not so full.

Fonseca blocks Okafor, the Swiss remains at Milan
In this situation, obviously, b is also the protagonist Fonseca. The new technician of the Milan he is studying the market of his new team, and it seems he has already vetoed a possible farewell.

Okafor He played a decent season with the red and black jersey. He scored 6 goals despite the ruthless competition in attack. However, his European championship with the Swiss national team is disappointing. Never used by the coach Murat Certain who, apparently, has no confidence in the AC Milan winger.
The problem could be related to the role of Okaforthat for Certain he is a winger or a second striker who, therefore, does not find space in the 3-4-2-1 that has so far reached the quarter-finals by beating Italy in the round of 16. “Too important to play often, his limited playing time is not optimal”, he commented Certain referring to the little use by Stefano Pioli. A complex present, therefore, for Okafor, who has good hopes for the future. His contract with Milan expires in 2028 and for the moment Fonseca is banking on him.
