According to a Milan legend, the club’s foundation is strong — and from the current roster, seven players deserve to form the core moving forward. But does that list include big names like Rafael Leao, Santiago Gimenez, Joao Felix, or Christian Pulisic?

After a resounding victory over Inter in the Coppa Italia semi-final, Milan is set to return to Serie A action against Venezia. With Christian Pulisic, Santiago Gimenez, Rafael Leao, and Joao Felix all in focus, the big question is: who among these stars will make the starting XI?

Beneath the surface of Milan’s win against Inter, there’s a quieter, more urgent reality. One that demands more from the Rossoneri’s biggest names—Christian Pulisic, Santiago Gimenez, Rafael Leao, and Joao Felix—and one that insists their season is far from finished, regardless of the Coppa Italia final on May 14.

When Kyle Walker was caught on camera confronting teammate Joao Felix during the 2-1 defeat to Napoli, everyone took notice because of one line that echoed louder than the rest: “Nobody here is Messi.” Now, weeks later, he has revealed the full story behind the heated moment—and it’s not quite what everyone thought.

As Milan prepares for its fifth and final showdown against Inter this season, one question looms large: which attacking star will lead them into battle when it matters most? With a Coppa Italia final spot and perhaps a lifeline to European qualification on the line, manager Sergio Conceicao faces his biggest selection dilemma yet.

While Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic are expected to reprise their roles in Milan’s revamped attacking trident, the real intrigue lies deeper. Will Joao Felix feature at all? Has Santiago Gimenez recovered in time to stake his claim?

A dramatic reshaping is on the horizon at San Siro. Amid uncertainty surrounding the sporting director and coaching appointments, some of the club’s biggest names are under review—and so is the fate of several high-profile stars.

A Milan limp toward the end of a disappointing campaign, questions loom over the club's future. Yet, in the midst of confusion and inconsistency, one player has emerged as a rare beacon of hope.

Sergio Conceicao’s seismic shift to a 3-4-3 formation raised eyebrows, not least because of the club’s deep-rooted history with a back four. But against Udinese, history bowed to pragmatism. And in the process, some of Milan’s biggest names rediscovered their spark.

With just seven games remaining, Milan must find a way to win almost all of them. But this Friday’s game is complicated by a wave of injuries, forcing Conceicao to rethink not just his line-up, but his entire approach.

At a time when all eyes were on marquee names like Christian Pulisic, Rafael Leao, Santiago Gimenez, and Joao Felix, it turns out that Milan’s most prolific forward—per 90 minutes played since Zlatan Ibrahimovic—has been someone nobody was talking about.

Rafael Leao, Santiago Gimenez, Christian Pulisic, and Joao Felix have all carried the weight of expectation at San Siro, each with moments of magic but none completely escaping scrutiny.

While most eyes are on the lineup choices of manager Sergio Conceicao, one particular question looms ahead of Saturday's clash: what role will Christian Pulisic play in a Milan team still searching for consistency?

Beyond the disappointing result for Milan, the match was also marked by rising tensions within the squad—none more evident than in the heated moment between Kyle Walker and Joao Felix.

The latest and most harsh assessment has now arrived from a club legend, who insists that only two players have lived up to expectations. But who are the two players who have earned praise?
