MILAN NEWS – Now that the management core of AC Milan has been confirmed, Maldini and Boban, in coordination with coach Marco Giampaolo, are working to build the new AC Milan squad for the 2019/20 campaign.
The Rossoneri will rely a lot on young players and the orientation of Gazidis is to buy young players that could become stars in the future. However, not only signings, also youngsters of Milan Primavera will be given a chance to prove themselves at the highest levels. Starting with Matteo Gabbia.
Gabbia will be the first starlet of Milan Primavera to be promoted to the first team. Tuttosport reports that the 19-year-old centre back will be part of AC Milan’s first team after some great performances with Italy in the Under-20 World Cup.
AC Milan loaned Matteo Gabbia to Lucchese in Serie C last season where he made 29 appearances, finding the back of the net on one occasion. The talented centre back has also made 14 appearances with Italy U-20. Reaching the World Cup semi-final was the cherry on the cake for the Rossoneri defender.
