Fikayo Tomori's absence weighed heavily on AC Milan in the last two Serie A league games as Milan lost to Fiorentina 4-3 and to Sassuolo 1-3. The former Chelsea defender had to miss those two matches and the one against Atlético Madrid due to a hip injury.
But now, it seems that the English centre-back is going to return to his usual starting spot next to Simon Kjaer in view of the next match against Genoa.
As pointed out by Tuttosport, Fikayo is a fundamental piece to Stefano Pioli's system now. What makes him so important is his speed that allows him to catch up with quick strikers, sense of anticipation and his high level of concentration.
Now, the player's return is certainly a boost for the Rossoneri, but relying on individual performances is not the way, in fact, as written by the source, Pioli needs his team to improve as a unit and work collectively. When Tomori does not play, Milan suffers at the back, and his return cannot cure all the defensive errors. This is why Milan must increase their level of concentration and performance in the coming matches.
