"Milan travel to Lecce amidst the chaos of the final days of the summer transfer window and following the week 1 home loss to Cremonese. The season opener exposed mostly obvious weaknesses at the back where a back three had been tried at least partially due to the lack of bodies available to Allegri. The front two and the attack in general were poor and Leao's early exit injury hampered the team with very limited options."
"The squad remains very thin and at 22 players misses options and variations. A lot more movement is set to happen before the Monday September 1 deadline and window closure. The team might not look much different but the squad size surely needs to increase. Several names are rumoured with all positions in flux and time will tell if the likes of Chukwueze, Musah and Jimenez will be Milan players next week. Gimenez's agent, at least, shut down the Mexican forward's exit talk."
Milan travel to Lecce during the final days of the summer transfer window after a week one home loss to Cremonese. The opener exposed defensive weaknesses and prompted a back three because of limited available players. The attack was poor and Leao’s early muscle injury will rule him out for this match. Jashari sustained an injury in training and could miss several weeks, leaving the squad thin at 22 players. More transfer activity is expected before the window closes, with Chukwueze, Musah and Jimenez frequently linked while Gimenez’s agent denied exit talk. The starting lineup is uncertain; a 3-5-2 remains possible and several players are projected to start.
