AC Milan tried in every way to sell him in the summer, but Santiago Gimenez chose to stay to prove everyone wrong, starting with those closest to him. For a moment, it seemed the Mexican might be surplus, but now he has even become indispensable given Leao’s absence and the less-than-optimal condition of Christopher Nkunku and Christian Pulisic.
Santiago Gimenez no longer a surplus, but a reaction is needed
In fact, he needs to make everyone at Milan rethink and return to being the decisive striker who scored in Rotterdam once every 108 minutes. He will have to start doing that tonight against Bologna, where he will start also because there is no other option, as relayed via Milan News.
Gimenez will play as the main striker, likely with Ruben Loftus-Cheek in support, with Bebote aiming to exploit his special connection with the Rossoblù (2 goals in 3 games) to not only continue the important and beautiful goal he scored with the national team against South Korea, but also to finally get back into form. For himself, but above all for Milan, which needs the striker it invested over 30 million euros in just six months ago.
