Max Allegri’s Press Conference
Today, Max Allegri’s press conference is held at Milanello, preparing for the upcoming match between Como and Milan. The focus is mainly on the injury to Niclas Füllkrug, a doubt that has kept fans on edge. Initially, reports suggested that the forward could be out for a month due to a toe fracture sustained in the match against Fiorentina. However, sources close to the club are reassuring that the issue is not that serious and that the player, known for his determination, is trying to return for the next game. While optimism is present, caution remains: for tomorrow night’s match, his call-up seems difficult.
Attack Situation
The condition of Milan’s attack is critical, with Füllkrug uncertain and his teammate Rafael Leão training regularly but not at peak fitness due to an adductor problem. Also, Christian Pulisic is not yet at 100% after an injury. This absence of key players threatens to impact the team’s performance, especially after recent losses against Fiorentina and Genoa. Tomorrow, every point will be precious to lift the team’s morale and climb the standings.
A Look at the January Transfer Market
In addition to preparations for the next match, there is discussion about the January transfer market. The investment philosophy of American ownership RedBird and Elliott, which still exerts significant influence on market decisions, is being discussed. Currently, the Milan finds itself in a high-ranking position, competing against teams like Napoli, Inter, Roma, and Juventus. However, there appears to be a lack of available funds to bolster the team ahead of the second half of the season.
Words from Alexis Saelemaekers
Finally, Alexis Saelemaekers has shared his thoughts about his commitment to Milan and the importance of team spirit in striving for the title. The trust from the coach and the unity within the group are key elements for the forward, who feels at home at Milanello and aims to give his best to help the team win.
Allegri’s press conference could prove crucial, not only for details on the lineup but also for the overall mood of the team, at a time when Milan really needs to restart with determination.
