News about Alessandro Florenzi

According to reports, AC Milan defender Alessandro Florenzi has been the latest Italian player to be investigated by authorities for suspected illegal gambling activities. Last month, Italian football was rocked by a controversy involving allegations of unlawful gambling, involving Sandro Tonali, Nicolo Fagioli, and Nicolo Zaniolo. Tonali and Fagioli have both been suspended for ten months and seven months respectively after serving out plea bargains with the FIGC, with Tonali reportedly refusing to wager on matches involving his former club AC Milan.

Cristian Pulisic, a Milan striker, was dismissed with a suspected hamstring injury in the midst of his club's Champions League match against PSG on Tuesday night. Pulisic seemed to be stretching his hamstring, erupted in agony, and stumbled down clutching his leg. In the second minute of stoppage time, he was brought to Alessandro Florenzi and walked off the field with trainers.

According to Calcio Mercato, the Rossoneri are looking to rise to their ranks at left-back and right-back, as well as a coveted Scally, who can play on either side as a winder target. Davide Calabria, Alessandro Florenzi, or Theo Hernandez usually start at left-back and left-back for Milan, but there is a shortage of coverage for both positions, as center-backs Pierre Kalulu and Malick Thiaw have often been playing at full throttle this season.

Champions AC Milan was held to a 1-1 home draw by lowly Salernitana in Serie A on Monday, making it their third winless outing in all competitions. Milan took the lead right before the interval when Olivier Giroud ploughed in from a corner by midfielder Ismael Bennacer, leaving Salernitana keeper Guillermo Ochoa unmoved. Unmarked forward Boulaye Dia, who was set up inside the box by defender Domagoj Bradaric and made it 1-1 with a first-touch finish, levelled Salernitana in the 61st minute. Milan were desperate to regain control, but the team was unable to change the scoreline, despite their advantage in possession, and late hopes by defender Alessandro Florenzi and striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Jose Mourinho's regular remark separates him from Roma's coterie and supporters. Roma's surprise Coppa Italia departure at the hands of Cremonese was a bitter blow to take for a coach who never emphasizes the club's transfer market or his squad's weaknesses if they lose. In critical situations, a leader should defend his team and accept all responsibility directly. His method of requesting more from his players is rare, but his desire to win goes beyond the boundaries of a charismatic boss.

Barcelona was willing to part with the American full-back in the transfer window in order to help balance finances, and United manager Erik ten Hag, who had worked with Dest before at Ajax, was keen to bring him to Old Trafford. Dest eventually transferred to AC Milan on loan, with the Italian side having the ability to buy for £17.5 million. According to reports, Xavi's team considered a swap agreement with Borussia Dortmund for Thomas Meunier, and they discussed using Dest in negotiations to lure Juan Foyth from Villarreal, but talks didn't go far.

Erik ten Hag is keen to sign a new right-back before the transfer window is closed and previously managed Dest at Ajax. Benjamin Pavard of Bayern Munich and Thomas Meunier of Borussia Dortmund have been linked to moves. Dest has made 72 appearances for Barcelona since joining the Nou Camp from Ajax in 2020, but he has been left out of the matchday squad by Xavi for the first three LaLiga games of this season.

With a 3-0 victory over Monza, Paulo Dybala scored his first goals for the club to lift Roma to the top of Serie A. Dybala, a striker for Jose Mourinho from Juventus in the summer, clung on to England striker Tammy Abraham's flick-on in the 18th minute before firing a left-footed shot into the corner. Argentina's 28-year-old Argentinian made it 2-0 on 32 minutes after Abraham's shot was salvaged after he slid the ball into an empty net, with Ibanez's header from a corner finishing the scoring shortly after the hour.
