After 5 Serie A matches, Lecce now have 11 points. Their latest result was against Genoa as they won 1-0. A result that becomes even more extraordinary when considering that Lecce has the lowest wage bill in Serie A (15 million gross), the youngest squad in the league with 17 players out of 25 born between 2000 and 2004, and 7 of them developed in the youth academy.
Lecce have some important young talents coming through the ranks as well as others who are starting to prove themselves. Among the profiles who have caught the attention of AC Milan, there is Nikola Krstovic, a 23-year-old centre-forward from Montenegro.
Nikola was watched live by by Milan in the match on September 3 against Salernitana (he scored the first goal in a 2-0 victory). He was also watched by Inter in Monza - Lecce on on September 17 (where he also scored in the 1-1 draw), as per Calciomercato.com.
It remains to be seen if the AC Milan management will continue to keep an eye on him and try to sign him. But one thing for sure is that Krstovic has an important future ahead of him, especially if he continues to work hard. He already has 3 goals scored in 4 Serie A matches.
