The 5 reasons to demand Milan can keep their Italian title in 2022/23
AC Milan come out of a magnificent season, rounded off by the scudetto won. A first since the 2010-2011 season. Stefano Pioli’s men will try to retain the title despite stiff competition. Here are the reasons why Milan can win Serie A again 2022-2023.
Significant detail: Milan will start the 2022-2023 season with practically the same starting lineup as last season. Yes, Paolo Maldini and the Milan management have managed to keep the pillars of this team. The coach remains Stefano Pioli, ready once again to shine with this famous 4-2-3-1.
Maignan – Calabria, Tomori, Kjaer, T.Hernandez – Tonali, Bennacer – Saelemaekers, De Ketelaere, Leão – Giroud
Here’s what Stefano Pioli’s XI could look like for the coming season. A team capable of fighting for the title and trying to do something in the Champions League. The diavolo have the best goalkeeper in Serie A available, a very solid defense that concedes few goals, one of the best double pivots in the world of football and a very interesting offensive line. A young group but above all very complete.
Serie A 2021-2022 has shown that the competition in this championship is high. Inter and Juventus will be the main competitors for Stefano Pioli’s team.
As written in the upcoming 90min predictions of the season, the Nerazzurri will be the favorites for the title but the AC Milan squad will have all the qualities to fight with their two rivals. The month of August, where 4 Serie A games are played, will be vital. Juve paid the price last season. In the end, the championship looks balanced.
AC Milan is a very competitive team, so there was no need to shake things up during this summer transfer window. Almost all of the starting eleven remains the same but with reinforcements once again very well identified.
In particular this position of number 10 where Brahim Diaz showed very little continuity. The rossoneri have decided to strengthen this sector with intelligence: De Ketelaere. Just that. Note the free arrival of Divock Origi to compensate for the absence of Zlatan Ibrahimovic (absent at least until January 2023).
At least two seasons Since then, AC Milan recruits intelligently. A market still marked by purchases of promising young players. A team with an average age of 24.5, the ideas of the new Milan management are clear and it is reflected on the pitch.
The purchase of De Ketelaere during this transfer window demonstrates this. The new paying business strategy, the scudetto is only a first reward.
