Former assistant to the sporting director of Donetsk "Shakhtar", Italian specialist Carlo Nicolini shared his thoughts on the potential arrival at "Milan" to replace Theo Hernandez with Ukrainian defender from London "Arsenal" Oleksandr Zinchenko.
Oleksandr Zinchenko“Zinchenko is an important and experienced player, as evidenced by his career. I can’t say for sure if he will be the perfect replacement for Theo in "Milan". The Frenchman is a very attacking player, while Zinchenko is more of a “joker”, “wild card”, capable of playing in different positions.
We know that Allegri (Massimiliano Allegri, the head coach of "Milan", – ed.) values experienced players who are ready to step up to a new level, and he fits into that category. This definitely won’t be a blind venture.
Zinchenko has shown himself well at "Arsenal". His biggest advantage is his frequent position changes, even in the national team, without losing technique and game vision, which is extremely important,” Nicolini’s words are reported by TMW.
