The impact of Santiago Gimenez with Milan and Serie A, at the end of his first months in the Rossoneri shirt following his arrival from Feyenoord in January, cannot be said to have been unforgettable.
After a decent start, El Bebote suffered from the team’s lack of consistency and probably also from a tactical setup that he never really liked. The Mexican finished his season with the Rossoneri with six goals in 19 appearances, but above all, with many doubts about his future after having been bought for around €30 million.
This is why the ball now passes to Massimiliano Allegri, who will have the task of evaluating the player. Il Corriere dello Sport headlines this morning:
"Gimenez, three months to sell his soul to the Devil."
It refers to the period from September to December, the first part of the season, during which the former Feyenoord striker will have to try to convince the coach to rely on him. CorSport continues:
“No offer has arrived; Allegri is taking time to assess the Mexican. He hasn’t convinced 100%, but the club will give him a chance. In January, a decision will be made.”
