Updates on the Rossoneri’s injury report
On January 6th, let’s take stock of AC Milan, particularly focusing on forward Christopher Nkunku. The player has continued with personal training due to an injury sustained during the match against Verona, which prevented him from participating in the trip to Cagliari. This absence concerns the Rossoneri fans, given Nkunku’s impactful role in the squad.
Nkunku’s condition and training in Milanello
It’s important to underline that, despite the Frenchman not joining the group training, all the other Rossoneri players trained regularly. Rafa Leão, Matteo Gabbia, and Christian Pulisic are working hard to prepare for the upcoming match against Genoa. Today’s training will be crucial in determining whether Nkunku will be on the pitch.
Market situation
Nkunku’s situation is not limited to injuries. Fenerbahçe has expressed interest in the Frenchman, but so far the player shows no inclination to move to Turkey. The Turkish club has recently spent 30 million for midfielder Guendouzi, showcasing their capacity to make significant investments in the market as well. At this point, the question arises: if Milan set a price for Nkunku, why can’t Fenerbahçe meet it while they had no hesitation in spending a similar sum on Guendouzi?
Future market strategies
Lazio, with the recent movements of players like Castellanos and Guendouzi, is determined to strengthen their squad and may make an offer for Loftus-Cheek. This English midfielder is seen as a wild card by Allegri, who considers him a fundamental element of his game strategy. However, despite the pressure from the market, the coach is determined to keep the Englishman at Milan.
Defensive necessity
Finally, Milan must urgently strengthen their defensive department. With the opening of the January window, several names are circulating in the market, from young promises to veterans like Sergio Ramos and Thiago Silva. The club is under pressure to make a decision as soon as possible, as any delay may negatively affect the integration of the new player into the team, especially if they come from a foreign league.
Milan’s management is working closely with agents, and choosing the right profile is crucial for the team’s future. What do you think about all these negotiations? Let us know in the comments!
