AC Milan's New Star: A False Nine Like Harry Kane?
30 Jul
Summary
- Andrej Kostic is compared to Harry Kane for his versatile playing style.
- Kostic's former teammate believes he will succeed at AC Milan.
- Adapting to Serie A's tactics presents a challenge for Kostic.
Andrej Kostic, a recent acquisition by AC Milan, is being likened to star forward Harry Kane due to his deceptive false nine role. This playing style involves dropping into midfield to influence build-up play before making runs to score. Milan Roganovic, who played alongside Kostic for Partizan Belgrade and the Montenegro national team, has spoken highly of the new signing.
Roganovic described Kostic as both a "wonderful person" and a "great footballer," expressing strong conviction in his future success at AC Milan. He believes Kostic possesses the necessary qualities to excel at the highest level, emphasizing his dedication to daily training.
Despite the positive outlook, the move to AC Milan represents a significant step and a potential gamble for both the player and the club. The Serbian league is known for different tactical approaches compared to Italy's Serie A, making immediate adaptation a hurdle. Kostic will need to prove he can translate his Serbian league success to a more demanding European competition.
