Yunus Musah is the man that Stefano Pioli has chosen to potentially provide a tactical surprise for the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals against Roma tonight, a report claims.
Musah will play in the middle of the field alongside Tijjani Reijnders or Ismael Bennacer, with the Dutchman currently the favourite to partner him in the midfield double pivot at present.
The third man in midfield will be Ruben Loftus-Cheek, an atypical attacking midfielder throughout 2024 so far and a player who needs to respond after a couple of less successful outings.
Milan thus change starters and, in part, their shape. Musah brings aggression and resourcefulness, with his accelerations on the ball, even at the risk of lowering the technical ability in the middle of the pitch
Essentially, it seems as though Pioli has opted for a more dynamic presence in front of the defence, one capable of causing problems with his ball progression through dribbling, with Reijnders the man who can pick the lock with his passing.
