#3 Gerard Deulofeu is settling in well at Milan
When he cut in from the left flank and rolled the ball into the path of Carlos Bacca, who made no mistake with the finish, Deulofeu picked up his second assist in two league games – out of a total of three since his loan move from Everton in January. This is in addition to the winner against Fiorentina where the Rossonieri triumphed 2-1 to mark the beginning of an upswing in results.
Deulofeu was Milan’s primary outlet for relieving the concerted pressure from the home side and did well to run the channels through the length of the game, as would be expected from the fresh legs of a 22-year-old. While there have already been whispers of Barcelona – who originally sold him to Everton – being interested in pursuing his signature at the summer, more reports suggest he will return to Goodison Park at the end of his loan spell.
The third option perhaps would be in his best interests with Vincenzo Montella building a young squad that he fits quite perfectly into.
