Super Eagles forward, Samuel Chukwueze, has opened up about the challenges that led to AC Milan’s underwhelming performance in the recently concluded season.
The Rossoneri wrapped up a disappointing campaign, finishing in eighth place, well outside the European qualification spots.
Their struggles extended beyond the Serie A, as they faltered in both the UEFA Champions League and Coppa Italia.
The team’s only silver lining came in the form of the Supercoppa Italiana triumph.
In the aftermath of the season, manager Sergio Conceição was relieved of his duties.
Speaking with SportsBoom, Chukwueze shed light on some of the key issues behind the team’s slump.
“Starting the season with one manager and completing pre-season under him, then switching manager midway was quite difficult,” he said.
“When a new manager arrived, everything changed from tactics, formations, and playing style. The players were eager and hungry, but adapting quickly to new ideas and systems wasn’t easy.”
