With so many names under scrutiny, AC Milan must also assess the current situation of the defensive department. In this regard, the three "youngsters" Tomori, Thiaw, and Kalulu should remain, as told by La Gazzetta dello Sport today.
For the Frenchman, Kalulu, there will be a need to understand the doubt about his role, and thus whether Fonseca sees him more as a central defender or a full-back.
To these, adds the source, Matteo Gabbia should also be added as he deserves a chance after an excellent last six months.
The under-23s Jimenez and Simic will likely rotate between Serie C and the first team. The greatest doubts, however, concern the left flank. From the French training camp a couple of days ago, Theo Hernandez fueled the mystery about his future: Milan does not intend to sell him, as Ibra said, but it is clear that if an offer of 80 million or more were to arrive, it would be difficult to refuse.
Alessandro Florenzi is also a big question mark: during his time at Roma, he fell out... precisely with Paulo Fonseca. It will be necessary to understand if the relationship can be recovered.
