I'm not convinced about this guy. But he's young and relatively cheap, so I guess it's a gamble we can afford. Hope we give him time and let him find his place and form with us.
I’m specially not convinced by the fact that he’s basically a discount Leão. Plays the exact same position and they keep saying that ‘he can also play as striker’, but he plays CF just like Rafa, by drifting to the left and cutting inside instead of staying wide.
So if he plays CF with Leao in the field they’ll just cancel each other out. If he arrived to be Leao’s depth, then fine, but we still have too many positions to fill.
Yeah, i think Pioli had requested this player to have an alternative to Leao, as Rebic was for a period and Okafor like Rebic can be put on the field as an atypical CF.
With Colombo being loaned out another year and with the (hopeful) Origi's departure I think Milan will go for another player, similar to Giroud.
