  AC Milan suffered a shocking 2-1 home defeat against newly promoted side Cremonese, in a rather odd game where the opponent simply got all the fortune in front of goal. The Rossoneri were guilty of small lapses in the back, while up front, they can't seem to get anything right, especially their finishing in the final third.  Defense Breakdown  The 2-1 loss against Cremonese can be considered as one of those games where the opponent didn't do much but somehow got a maximum result. They barely created anything significant going forward as Davide Nicola's side only made four shots in total, and two of them somehow resulted in goals.  It's difficult to fully judge the defense as overall they did minimize their opponent's attack quite well, but in the moment of goals, there were some errors that got punished heavily. On the first goal from Baschirotto, there was a lapse of concentration, particularly from Stahinja Pavlovic, who was late in spotting the Cremonese big de...

AC Milan have been having a rather mix early part of their new season, notably in Italian Serie A as they already lost five games up til now, despite winning the same amount as well and only drawing just once. Certainly with the amount of money being spent this summer, that number of defeats are quite concerning, but so far the new management opted to remain patient with their head coach, Vincenzo Montella, something that whether some fans like it or not must be done, at least for the time being. Most of their defeats have arrived from other big teams, though apart from the match against Lazio, Rossoneri have actually been able to compete properly with their opponents, but just missing that bit of something each time.

AC Milan 's transfer movement this summer continue to take an interesting twist as after some recent blip moments regarding Gianluigi Donnarruma's contract status along with Keita Balde's uncertainty. Rossoneri rising up high again as this weekend they are about to complete two major signings, Leonardo Bonucci along with Lucas Biglia. After spending most of their moves acquiring young talented players, Milan's new management seemingly think it's time they add some more experience into Vincenzo Montella's squad and it looks like happening with those two major names set to arrive.

Back again with the weekend transfer updates for AC Milan , not many development arrived in the early part of this week, though Rossoneri got themselves a new arrival on Fabio Borini from Sunderland. Let's get into more details about the news and rumors that I've been receiving recently regarding Milan's transfer market this summer.

Several situations have seemingly halted AC Milan 's transfer moves, particularly recent Gianluigi Donnarumma's case which forced Rossoneri to search for a potential new keeper. This early weekend, I will try to share some of the latest reports regarding Milan's transfer plan for the upcoming 2017/2018 season.

In the past couple of days, the footballing world has received a slight shock wave due to Gianluigi Donnarumm a's decision not to renew with AC Milan. Although it's often seen as quite normal for any player to opt out on his contract, but the young goalie's decision, notably created such thunder for many, especially those in Italy. Aside from the basic contractual thingy, eventually many speculation eventually rises regarding the 18-year-old's rejection of renewal. From those who despite that decision, even to some who seemingly try to make right of the situation by once again putting doubts on Rossoneri's project. Looking it from the outside, it's certainly a situation which I didn't really predict at first, sine just like I wrote in my previous transfer analysis, the keeper situation looked more than a chess match at the time, but things suddenly evolving into an odd manner.

AC Milan 's attempt to bolster their midfield have been hitting some problems recently, but they eventually set out their mind in grabbing former Besiktas, Napoli and Atletico Madrid player, Jose Sosa , who supposedly arrived in a 7.5 million euro deal. The midfielder will be wearing the number 23 jersey and is keen on transferring his experience and give his best for the next two years with Vincenzo Montella's side. Already linked with the player since early days of calcio mercato, it wasn't until Milan's offer for Rodrigo Bentacour got rejected by Boca that Rossoneri finally opted to get the player that Montella recommended.
