MN: Musah set to start vs. Inter – American midfielder could unlock Conceicao’s Milan | OneFootball

Fluidity is one of the biggest parts of modern football, and AC Milan could have their own versatile gem in the shape of Yunus Musah.

Since arriving, Musah has been quite bit-part. Two head coaches have struggled to find the American’s best, but Sergio Conceicao could be the man to unlock his best, and in return, he could get the best from Milan.

On Friday evening, the Rossoneri started in the typical 4-3-3 shape, but as the second half started, that quickly changed to a 4-4-2, with Musah sitting on the right flank, and being directly involved in the winning goal.

Conceicao could be able to utilise both systems with the midfielder though. When he joined, it was suggested that his career path was heading towards a central position, with him physically gifted, and this is where the majority of his minutes have come.

It is arguable though, that his best minutes have come out wide, and it could be possible that the midfielder could balance the front line, allowing the opposite winger – probably Leao – to attack with free will.

Should Pulisic also feature, perhaps centrally, the American could move wider to create a 4-3-3, which would see Musah invert.

As Milan News states, the midfielder is set to start against Inter tomorrow, and whilst a 4-3-3 is currently predicted, either system would be possible, and that is solely due to the versatility of Musah and his profile.
