As written by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan has invested around 110 million euros in the last two transfer windows, but the pitch is speaking: from second place to (momentary) ninth place. The newspaper takes Emerson Royal as an example: arrived in the summer for 13.5 million euros and, before getting injured, was already on the verge of departure.
The same goes for the attack: in July, an investment was made for Álvaro Morata—13 million euros for his transfer fee and a significant salary. In January, 28.5 million euros were spent on Santiago Giménez from Feyenoord, with Álvaro Morata sent on loan to Galatasaray.
During the summer transfer window, the club had also invested in Pavlović, Fofana, and Abraham. The first two have experienced ups and downs, while for the Englishman, Milan "sacrificed" Saelemaekers, who is performing very well at Roma. In January, in addition to Giménez and Walker, Joao Félix, Sottil, and Bondo arrived. None have truly shined.
"The results have not rewarded the efforts," writes La Gazzetta dello Sport, with wage expenses rising. This is why enthusiasm faded almost immediately, also considering the Champions League elimination and Serie A defeats in direct clashes, as relayed via PianetaMilan.it
