Milan might have revolving doors up front in January, as the future of all their offensive deputies hangs in the balance. None has earned significant minutes in the early going. There’s been a big gap compared to the performances of the starters.
According to Calciomercato, Luka Jovic might leave after being supplanted by Tammy Abraham, who eventually became a regular with Alvaro Morata playing a few meters behind him. Despite the new formation, the Serb has logged just 78 minutes through 3 appearances. He started in the opener and barely featured since. He’s ineligible to play in the Champions League and has been dealing with a groin issue. His agent Fali Ramadani is well-connected in the Saudi Pro League.
Milan want Samuel Chukwueze to turn things around to make good on their €20M investment He has logged seven appearances, starting twice, but has failed to make an impact. He has a lot of suitors in the Middle Eastern championship. Ruben Loftus-Cheek has had a poor start but has the trust of the coach and the management.
The brass is also pondering what to do with Davide Calabria. He’s on an expiring contract. He’s been continuously hurt so far, and Emerson Royal has taken over the position. Galatasaray and a pair of Spanish sides are poking around.
Our Take on the Milan Attack
They have all been underwhelming, although it’s tough to properly judge them since they played so little under Paulo Fonseca. On the other hand, they do need backups, preferably better ones, or they’d run their starters into the ground. It’ll depend on what kind of offers they could fetch. If they have an opening, they should sign a quality no.10 so Morata can play center-forward more often.
