AC Milan's central defender Pierre Kalulu is certainly the talk of the media these days, and rightfully so, thanks to his vital contribution to the team's victory against Empoli the other day. With Fikayo Tomori, he is forming an exceptional wall around their goalkeeper, Mike Maignan.
Corriere dello Sport in today's edition wrote about how important the centre-back pairing is for the system of Stefano Pioli. Both the French defender and his English partner play in a similar way: they are fast, aggressive, contribute to the attack in set-pieces and have good physical strength.
The former Lyon's player was a fourth choice for Stefano Pioli and now he is a starter, remarks the newspaper as a praise for his great progress and dedication.
Now, it is fair to talk about a renewal for Pierre Kalulu who showed that he deserves a new improved contract. As per the source, he will receive a post-tax salary of 1 million euros per season in a deal valid until June 2026.
