Milan Linked to Reunion with Real Madrid Attacker | OneFootball

Brahim Diaz has left a good memory at Milan, and the possibility of a return could gain steam in the coming weeks if he continues to play sparingly at Real Madrid. He was a quality super sub last season, but that hasn’t been the case in the present one, La Gazzetta dello Sport relays.

The 25-year-old has starred nine times, scoring once and assisting twice. He missed more than a month due to a thigh injury. The arrival of Kylian Mbappé has shaken up the pecking order up front, limiting the opportunities for the other attackers. Moreover, Arda Guler is getting more minutes than in the past.

Brahim Diaz recorded 18 goals in 124 matches in his previous multi-year loan spell at Milan before Real Madrid brought him back. He has remained in touch with a few Rossoneri, for instance, Theo Hernandez.

Despite his secondary role, he put up strong numbers in his return to the Santiago Bernabeu, hitting the net 12 times and setting up 9 teammates in 44 games in 2023/2024. He’ll generate interest in Saudi Arabia if he asks out in January or next summer.

Our Take on Brahim Diaz and Milan

A return is probably unlikely, but the Rossoneri could use somebody with his traits, as they don’t have a real deputy for both Christian Pulisic and Samuel Chukwueze if the former features as a no.10. One addition who could handle both roles, as the Moroccan international would be able to do, would be apt. On the other hand, they are limited in what they can do with their lists.
