Zlatan Ibrahimovic at Milanello to send a strong message: the ownership cares a lot about the derby and wants to convey its energy to the team. The Milan senior advisor carefully observed the team’s training session, his presence at the Rossoneri sports center serves to make a group that struggles to keep the line when things don’t go the right way responsible. DERBY PACT – A clear signal came right at the end of the session when three of the most representative players of the squad, Maignan, Theo Hernandez and Reijnders, spent a long time with Ibrahimovic. The presence of the Dutchman certifies the desire to elevate his responsibilities even within the locker room despite having been at Milan for just over 12 months. Zlatan reiterated to the players that they have all it takes to win against Inter, urging them to give their all until the last minute. A sort of derby pact to try to turn the season around.
FONSECA AT RISK – Ibrahimovic had the chance to greet and chat briefly with Fonseca. The Portuguese’s fate is tied solely to the results: he must win the derby. A mission that is certainly very difficult but not impossible as long as a united, determined team with the will to sacrifice themselves in coverage takes to the field, characteristics that have never been seen in this start of the championship. Now the time for proclamations is over, we need facts. The many unsold tickets against Liverpool and the final protest are two clear snapshots of the moment: Milan must bring the fans back to their side. Before it’s too late.
