There is still one selection dilemma to resolve at Milan ahead of tonight’s Europa League opener against Benfica. The doubt concerns the attacking midfield position, specifically the choice between Christian Pulisic and Omari Hutchinson, as pointed out via Milan Press.
Many believe the Englishman is in pole position to start, but according to Corriere dello Sport, Ruben Amorim could instead turn to the American.
What is pushing Pulisic towards a starting spot is above all the excellent impact he had at the Olimpico.
Coming on during the match against Lazio, Captain America added greater dynamism to Milan’s play and was immediately involved in the Rossoneri’s comeback.
According to the newspaper, that performance could therefore have convinced Amorim to hand him a starting role again tonight. The battle with Hutchinson remains open until the last moment, but Pulisic appears to be the chosen one for Milan’s European opener.
