Even though Pierre Kalulu is not particularly pleased with his current predicament going into the 2023–24 season, he has been given the opportunity to reclaim his spot.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Fikayo Tomori’s suspension will prevent him from playing in the derby against Inter, hence Kalulu will start the most crucial game of the autumn schedule.
After moving from Lyon, where he had never made his professional debut, Kalulu was the picture of imperturbability when he began playing in a centre-back tandem with Tomori.
He and the Englishman formed the backbone of a team that helped the Rossoneri end their championship drought by keeping nine clean sheets and giving up just two goals in their last 11 league games.
However, the armory had a few more chinks last season, and Thiaw ended up starting in place of the Frenchman as a result.
The newspaper asserts that they have spoken to Milan, who has never wanted to explore the prospect of getting rid of him, but Kalulu, who is not too happy with the current situation and who would be, starting from the second row.
Some offers came in the summer, but because Pierre can play both center back and full back, he has a special value and the possibility of his leaving in the summer was never taken seriously.
