Big on the front page in Italy: Charles de Kettleri should crown Milan’s new ‘Tricartista’

It has long been no secret that the Milan champions are tapping into the versatile Club Brugge striker. “De Kitelleri fits the image Milan is looking for: young, but ready to show himself in the Serie A and Champions League,” Gazzetta wrote on Thursday.

At the beginning of the new week, the Italians unpacked their bags with a front page dedicated to the “CDK”:

According to the Official Gazette, Club Brugge has imposed €40 million on De Ketelaere. But sports chief Paolo Maldini is ready to give the Red Devils a “leading role” in the Rossoneri. The American company RedBird recently acquired Milan, and therefore has new capital (reportedly 100 million euros) to invest in remittances.

Negotiations will begin once Milan has things in order with RedBird. “The strategy is continuity: no crazy spending but targeted investments, with a focus on young players who can realize their potential. De Ketelaere fulfills these conditions: he turned 21 in March and has been bragging in Belgium in recent years… the talent is there and the potential to be His market value in the Rossoneri continues to grow. With forty million, Milan hopes to persuade Bruges to sell him. De Ketelaere is already playing for Milan in his head: he wants to go to another competition to challenge himself.”

However, there is also a but. “The World Cup in Qatar is underway,” said the Italians. “De Ketelaere could be admired by a large audience, so some kind of auction could start in the millions and De Ketelaere could be sold to the highest bidder. But… that’s not certain (De Ketelaere played only 15 minutes during the current Nations League campaign, Editor). ), while the great interest in Milan is certain.”

Now it seems clear that Milan does not see De Kitleri as a striker, but as the number 10. “Tricaparta”, because he looks very beautiful in Italian. So the role between midfield and attack. Francesco Totti gave the concept a legendary interpretation of Serie A, but also think of icons like Alessandro Del Piero and Roberto Baggio. Creativity is the key word and goals along with passes, yet at least one great dribble in every match. Just get on with it…

It appears that “De Ketelaere will play in the ten, even if without that jersey number (the ten now belong to Real Madrid mercenary Brahim Diaz, editor)”. “He is an attacking midfielder and he can provide good strength, more insight and movement. In Belgium, he played almost everywhere in attack, but coach Stefano Pioli sees him in the role of playmaker.”
