Brahim, firm bet

The situation

Milan continues to bet heavily on Brahim Díaz.  The Rossoneri coach Stefano Pioli declared that he wanted his continuity “of course” and that, with him, the same thing can happen as with Tonali : that his explosion will come with time. The man from Malaga has lived, since his arrival at San Siro , two fundamental courses for the entity. In the first there was a return to the Champions League after eight years of waiting, while in the second a historic scudetto arrived (which made him the third player in history, the youngest and the first Spaniard capable of winning La Liga, the Premier and Calcio), the only one of the milanisti after a decade of bitterness. Brahim had an important role in the title course , especially in its first phase. He scored in the first nine official matches, four goals and two assists , and was one of the best Rossoneri also in the opening matches of the European Cup. Then the covid stopped him for a month , it was difficult for him to recover his fitness and Pioli himself acknowledged that, perhaps, some decision of his may have taken away his confidence , although that did not prevent his decisive participation in fundamental matches such as the comeback of the return derby against Inter. The coach, in addition to having spoken wonders about the player publicly, has always been transmitting confidence in him, confirming that he considers him a fundamental piece of his project. 

The details

Madrid is still very interested in the player’s evolution and, at the beginning of this market, it was not ruled out that he could call him back by interrupting the Italian loan a year in advance. Finding an agreement with Milan, in this sense, would have been easy thanks to the great relations between the entities , but all parties agreed that the best thing was for Brahim to continue growing at the San Siro. The Spaniard has found a perfect environment in Italy , he has evolved tactically and, after the first season bearing the responsibility of being considered a starter (and with the 10 Rossoneri behind him) , in which he is about to start, the Milanese hope much of his talent. At 23 years old, all the best of his career is yet to come.
