AC Milan’s impressive beginning to the season, positioning them as contenders for the Serie A title, has been succeeded by a decline in performance.
Having secured just one victory in their last six matches across various competitions, they currently find themselves at the bottom of their Champions League group, trailing league leaders Inter Milan by six points.
Given these difficulties, necessary adjustments are imperative, and AC Milan might discover a remedy for their recent struggles in a player from Real Madrid.
Brahim Diaz, hailed as a ‘new signing’ for Real Madrid in the summer, garnered significant praise following a standout 2022/23 season during his loan at AC Milan. Despite his impressive display, Real Madrid recalled him to the Spanish capital for the current season.
However, Brahim has experienced limited playing time this season, with just nine appearances and 118 minutes of play, according to Transfermarkt statistics.
Speculation about his future has naturally arisen, raising the possibility of a return to AC Milan. Reports from Calciomercato suggest that if Brahim’s situation doesn’t improve, a loan move back to AC Milan in January could be on the table, a prospect welcomed by AC Milan’s manager, Stefano Pioli.
Brahim’s exceptional performance for AC Milan last season sparked discussions of a permanent transfer, with interest from top Premier League clubs as well.
Despite Real Madrid recalling Brahim with expectations of regular contributions or a starting role, his current role at Santiago Bernabeu is minor. Consequently, a move away from the club could potentially benefit all parties involved.
