AC Milan's head coach, Stefano Pioli, is working on preparing his team for the start of the season. The aim is to obviously win the first game against Bologna on Monday, August 21. The gaffer definitely has more choices now in attack which has seen the additions of Noah Okafor up front as well as Pulisic and Chukwueze as well as Luka Romero on the flanks. However, one cannot forget about Lorenzo Colombo who has returned from a decent loan experience at Lecce.
According to what is reported by MilanPress.it, Lorenzo Colombo has admirers in Serie A. However, he could remain at Milanello. The 22-year old centre-forward has scored 3 goals in this pre-season (a record shared with Loftus-Cheek), demonstrating clinical finishing in front of the goal.
Colombo, in the past season, scored 6 goals for Lecce. The Rossoneri striker hopes to surpass this record to further develop his footballing skills.
I personally think that Colombo is unlikely to leave the team, because Milan’s current first team still lacks one youth player of its own team to meet the registration rules of the Champions League. If Colombo leaves, then Milan’s first team will lack two youth players of its own team. Even if a rookie can be promoted from the youth team, this will damage the immediate combat effectiveness of the Champions League. In addition, from the perspective of individual players, there are many games, and Colombo, who has good technical characteristics as a center, can get a chance to play.
