In an editorial for Corriere dello Sport, journalist Franco Order reports an interesting dilemma for Elliot. In such a crucial period for the Rossoneri, the January mercato could have great impact on AC Milan’s final standing at the end of the season.
Maldini and Massara have the opportunity to improve the squad with targeted and useful purchases the can really give a boost in the Scudetto fight. Plus the Rossoneri are playing in three competitions.
