Sottil vuole aiutare il Milan: mandato un primo messaggio a Conceicao (LaPresse) – MilanLive.it
The recent defeat against Torino was a big disappointment for AC Milan, which after the elimination in the Champions League had to redeem itself and avoid making another false step in Serie A. Few players were saved in the knockout at the Stadio Olimpico, one of them certainly being Riccardo Sottil.
Taking over in the second half in place of a disappointing Joao Felix, the 25-year-old outfielder featured in some interesting actions. He took some initiatives to try to provide useful crosses for his teammates. It was from one of his passes, deflected by a defender, that the momentary 1-1 goal signed by Tijjani Reijnders was born. He certainly did better than those who preceded him on the left flank, namely the aforementioned Felix and also Rafael Leao.

The one against Torino was Sottil’s second appearance with the Rossoneri shirt. The first had been as a starter in Milan-Hellas Verona, when he was replaced after 45 minutes by Sergio Conceicao. The positive 20 minutes against the granata is a sign of the player’s desire to make a valuable contribution to a team that is struggling at the moment and must try to take advantage of every resource present.

The son of art moved to Milan with great motivation, bringing from Florence a baggage with 5 goals and 3 assists in the 26 seasonal appearances collected with the purple uniform. He is not Leao and he is not Felix, however, he is a footballer who wants to carve out his own space and prove that he deserves confirmation for next season. Milan has agreed with Fiorentina on a loan with a right of redemption set at 10 million euros.
Next Thursday the Rossoneri will face Bologna at the Renato Dall’Ara stadium, we will see if Conceicao will decide to give him a starting chance again or at least space in the running game. Sottil has a great desire to make an impact, he gave a glimpse of something of his potential in Turin and hopes to be taken into greater consideration in the rest of the season.
