CM: ‘Immovable’ Thiaw could be set for nation change following recent rise | OneFootball

Seeing players linked with international football is rather common after a spell of good form, and this is the case, kind of, for AC Milan defender Malick Thiaw.

After a poor start to the season, there were many questions about what place, if any, Thiaw had in the plans for Milan moving forward. Partnering with this, there were several ready to turn a page on his time at the club, with shouts for the Rossoneri to search for a new home for him.

However, this is the last idea on anyone’s mind at present. In recent weeks, Thiaw has established himself once again and alongside Matteo Gabbia, he has returned to his best in a Diavolo shirt, leading Calciomercato.com to brand him ‘immovable’.

The change in his fortunes is a credit to him, especially considering he spent a lot of time sidelined after the mistake-ridden opening to his season, which is something that many would struggle with. However, this has not been the case for the defender.

As a result of the recent upturn in performances, Senegal are looking to offer him a place in the National Team set-up, despite the fact that he has three German caps. Nevertheless, because these appearances were all friendlies, he is still eligible to change nationalities, and the Senegalese National Team want to offer him a new lease of life.
