Allegri put Milanello back at the centre of the entire sporting project from day one. He restored pre-match retreats whereby the players stay at the training complex before home games, as well as double training sessions and rules based on collegiality, like eating together. Allegri has fused all these aspects, transforming Milanello into a laboratory for recreating DNA, a sense of belonging, collective values and of course a tactical narrative capable of achieving the club's objectives.
As Newcastle prepared for the game against Barcelona, which ended 1-1 after two late goals, journalists and media were present at the training ground to watch the English side. This is standard for Champions League, i.e. the media being invited to a training session.
The bad news is that Rabiot will miss out due to the yellow card accumulation. He was on four yellow cards before the derby and was booked in the second half, taking his tally up to five points. It's not ideal to be without him, but at least his accumulation will now be reset.
I'm very calm. My concentration is 100% here at Corinthians. If I went to Milan I would be living a dream, but I'm living a dream here too. Playing for Corinthians is a dream I've always had since I was a child, even more so as a professional.
Situations like the André one must never happen again. Meaning: a club's scouting team must be able to work to find players they believe are suitable for Milan, but before going after them, there's a mandatory step: sharing the information with the coach and sporting director.
As he walked around the pitch clutching the back of his thigh, many feared a strain or even a tear that could keep the Italian out for weeks, putting the decisive part of the season in jeopardy. Thankfully, a serious injury was then ruled out.
There have already been denials about Casemiro, not from the club but from colleagues very close to the club. No, it's out of the question... However, I continue to say that Casemiro wants to play with Modric in the final years of his European career. He wants to play in the Champions League, and so I still believe that if Casemiro were to contact Modric and Modric were to contact Allegri or Tare, the possibility exists.
Since the end of January, the forward and his entourage have been talking to Igli Tare (the two have an excellent relationship) about a possible contract extension. Both the player and the club want to move forward together, and so a contract extension has gone from an idea to a renewal negotiation, all while Leao improved his season tally to nine goals on Sunday in Cremona.
AC Milan announce that Pietro Faccioli has signed his first professional contract. The goalkeeper, born in 2009 and a Rossoneri player for five seasons, will be part of the Milan Futuro project, an initiative dedicated to the growth and development of young talent.
In recent months and years, a lot has been said about Pulisic and how good his form has been. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about his first few months of 2026. Even with him suffering from an injury, he has been below the standard that we have come to expect of the man deemed Mr Reliable.
