Youssouf Fofana was regarded as the best summer signing for AC Milan for much of the season, but in recent weeks, his importance has dwindled, leaving many confused.

The signing of Fofana in the summer mercato dominated the transfer talk for Milan, and when the club eventually got the deal over the line, it seemed quite monumental. Then, when Sergio Conceicao arrived, the Frenchman’s importance seemed to rise a little, with the Portuguese requesting a deputy.

However, it seems that the deputy has now overtaken the Monagasque midfielder in ranking, as Warren Bondo and Yunus Musah, who was already at the club, are seemingly preferred.

At present, there is no knowledge as to why that may be, but with the team seeming less compact and structured without Fofana’s presence, partnered with some poor games from Musah, the questions are arising about the Frenchman’s return.

Most notably today, from Franco Ordine, who wrote a piece for Corriere della Sera about the midfielder’s absence and Milan News have relayed his words.

“Another questionable move, that of promoting Musah as a starter: ready, go, he misses, with an empty goal, a goal that could have given the challenge a different destiny and then, drooling over an elementary pass, he forces Bondo to make up for it by spending a yellow that is then the reason for his substitution after the interval.

“It’s true: it takes courage to leave Theo Hernandez, in obvious pain against Strefezza, in the shower, while the Spaniard who came on in his place, Jimenez, must curb his quarrelsome nature if he is to deserve any confirmation. Then there is an unanswered question: why is Fofana no longer in the Portuguese’s plans? It is a mystery.

“The Frenchman, who entered in Musah’s place, is the balancer, in the defensive phase, he is the author of a series of useful interventions and allows, among other things, the displacement of Reijnders, the keystone of the challenge.

“The most alarming deficit of all, however, remains Sergio Conceiçao’s idea of football.”
