"The signs from Iceland vs. France are positive for AC Milan. In an unfavoured role, Christopher Nkunku was instrumental, and he has been praised for this. The process of getting Nkunku up to full speed is a difficult one; unfortunately, you cannot just go 0-100, as it can have severe consequences. So, it is a case of building up minutes and intensity over a period of time."
"Didier Deschamps opted to use him on the left in last night's game, and whilst he blundered a few chances, he still scored for Les Bleus. Speaking after the game, the coach was very complimentary towards him, as Gazzetta dello Sport relays. "Nkunku has the ability to remain calm in front of the goal. He's not yet in top form, given that he hasn't had much playing time at Milan so far.""
"As an attacking player, these are situations that can happen. The second chance came suddenly, I saw the ball coming at the last minute, I tried to direct it, but it went over. The most important thing is to stay focused on the game and the next move [which resulted in the goal]."
Christopher Nkunku showed positive signs for AC Milan after his appearance for France against Iceland, performing well despite an unfavoured role. He missed a few chances but still scored, demonstrating composure in front of goal. Returning to full fitness requires careful management to avoid negative consequences, so minutes and intensity must be built up gradually. Didier Deschamps noted Nkunku's calmness and lack of match sharpness due to limited club playing time. Nkunku emphasized staying focused after missed opportunities. Massimiliano Allegri must now decide where and when to deploy him for Milan.
