"The front line has been an issue for Milan all season; there can be no denying that. Whether it has been injuries, bad form or a mix of both, Allegri has rarely had the luxury of a front two without question."
"The idea currently would see Fullkrug return to the striker position, where his physicality could be an aid, to help offer an outlet up front, whilst also distracting the defence for other players to make progress."
"According to the report, the German is 'raring to go and can't wait' for another opportunity, which certainly could arrive. So far, he has been considered a substitute, but this could change now with him being seen as a useful profile for this weekend's fixture."
AC Milan's attacking line has struggled throughout the season due to injuries and poor form, leaving manager Massimiliano Allegri without a reliable front two. Despite Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic's return, both players are not at full fitness and underperformed in the match against Parma. This has prompted Allegri to consider tactical changes. Niclas Fullkrug, a German striker, may receive his second start of the season. His physicality could provide a useful outlet and create space for teammates. Fullkrug is eager for another opportunity and is viewed as a valuable profile for the upcoming weekend fixture, likely partnering with either Leao or Pulisic.
