Stefano Pioli's AC Milan squad have certainly turned a corner, evident in their convincing 2-0 win over Gian Piero Gasperini's team Atalanta at the San Siro stadium last night, which saw the return of key players Mike Maignan and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Now is not the time for complacency, however. More work is needed as the Rossoneri must continue to work hard and the management must plan for reinforcements and solutions in the upcoming mercato to avoid any potential setbacks in view of next season.
Rumours suggest that Liverpool may be able to offer Milan fans some hope, albeit small, in the event of losing their 2021-2022 Serie A MVP, Rafael Leao. According to calciomercatoweb, Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool is poised for a revolution in the next season, with the German manager seeking to initiate it by acquiring Leao from AC Milan. The Reds' proposal is said to be substantial, comprising a considerable amount of money in addition to the transfer of Luis Diaz, the Colombian winger born in 1997, who is a standout player despite not being a regular starter at Anfield. AC Milan, who have been monitoring Diaz since his days at Porto, may be enticed by a deal that includes such a swap, as per the report.
