Milan, because Renato Sanches would not be the replacement for Kessie


The latest rumors report a sensitive rapprochement between the parties: Renato Sanches is one step away from the transfer to Milan on the basis of about 20 million euros for the card and a salary that will be in line with what are the requests of agent Jorge Mendes . The Rossoneri club, therefore, will ensure … the non-replacement for Kessie.

Different features

Yes, because the Portuguese footballer born in 1997 has little to do with the now former Ivorian midfielder of Milan. If not for some aesthetic resemblance, the interpretation of the role of the two is completely opposite: Kessie is more muscular, more a midfielder, more one uproots balls and one barriers to opponents, while Sanches is considerably more technical and more inclined to decide. the fate of the ball when it is in possession rather than when the latter is in possession of the opponents.

Location … similar

However, this does not mean that Stefano Pioli can use Renato Sanches in the same positions in which he used Kessie. In midfield, in fact, the Portuguese could be deployed alongside Tonali or Bennacer in the two in the median (Tonali, in fact, is the real “substitute” for Kessie for technical and physical characteristics) or, as happened also to the Ivorian this season, as an atypical playmaker. It is clear that, technical qualities in hand, Renato Sanches could be much more suitable than Franck Kessie in that role. That is why, eventually, he will not be his substitute.
