"Age-defying Milan will face Juventus, relying on their veteran goalkeeper"
Preparing for a Tough Fight: Milan's Dilemma at the Goalkeeper Position
The Serie A titans, Milan, are faced with a challenging situation as they line up against Juventus at San Siro on October 22nd. Due to Mike Maignan's suspension, following his red card in the match against Genoa, and Marco Sportiello's calf injury that will keep him out for at least ten days, the goalkeeper position will likely see the experienced Antonio Mirante take the spotlight.
In Milan's squad, a 19-year-old talent, Lapo Nava, from their primavera team, might be part of the roster, but entrusting him with such a critical role against a formidable adversary like Juventus seems unlikely. Mirante, who last started an official match in May 2021 while still a Roma player, will get a chance to prove himself, having made a single substitute appearance for Milan in the last game of the previous season against Verona.
The Journey of MiranteHis last significant outing was in the home Europa League semi-final match against Manchester United, where he and his team, "The Wolves," suffered a narrow 3-2 loss, following a 6-2 defeat away from home, which ultimately kept them from reaching the final.
Since then, Mirante has only graced the pitch once, as a substitute for Milan in their season finale against Verona. He's yet to accrue significant playing time with the Rossoneri.
With no clear alternatives available, Mirante is poised to make a mark in Milan's attempt to outwit the formidable Juventus. Stay tuned to catch this thrilling showdown!
