Pierre Kalulu - D RC - AC Milan (19 Viewers)

[JCK]

Apart from being injured most of last season how was this guy the year before? I remember he had a great season not too long ago but seems like damaged goods now.

I guess we only have more for a few million loan to buy deal as well, so should have moved away from Todibo sooner if that's the case.

Only positives I can see are age and versatility, rest is an underwhelming gamble.

That's nothing to be concerned about at all.

Loan with option seems ok to me.

Once Todibo fell through, it was always going to be the cheap option with Serie A experience. There's more of this to come too as we still have gaping holes in the squad.

 

[Sadomin]

I know nothing of him, but Milan fans seem to have been lyrical about him 2020-2022, pre-injury.

 

[PhRoZeN]

Don't know what to expect here. Opinions of this guy range from being a monster defender that destroys Mbappe (did he really face Mbappe?) to worse than Rugani.

Btw, it's hilarious to see both Juve fans and Milan fans curse their management for this deal

He got 'boatenged' by Okafor, Mbappe, really?

 

[Robee]

Sjeeeesh.... Milan refused Chiesa-Salemaekers swap because Fede's salary is too high (GdS).

Saw a Milan fan write that. I don't know Kalulu, I have watched little football in recent years. That is why I seek some opinions.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

allow me to tell you exactly what to expect my friend

unti two days ago, not a single person here suggested kalulu. even the week before no one. entire of 2024 not one poster mentioned kalulu. it was last mentioned in october of 2023 in the live thread

here are some responses in years before in reference to kalulu:

@Alen said here:

Kalulu, Tomori and Meite are serie B level.
Saelemaekers and Castillejo are Bologna level.

How are Milan second? Serie A is in a sad, sad state.

Gatti would have done better in such situations.

Juventus will sign Kalulu on loan with the right purchase, NO OBLIGATION included. [Daniele Longo - CM]

The news are confirmed also by Alfredo Pedulla. Milan has accepted the loan with the right purchase (no obligation).

[Xperd]

Yeah he's definitely going back to Milan in a year's time and prepare for Gatti to play most minutes this season

 

[JCK]

Great news. Giuntoli delivers

 

[Alin]

Yeah he's definitely going back to Milan in a year's time and prepare for Gatti to play most minutes this season

At least it’s not an obligation, which makes it a bit more acceptable, but still underwhelming nonetheless.

 

[Bianconero81]

My washing machine is a better defender than Gatti. A traffic cone is more useful as a CB.

Even my trash can is better than the trash can Serie B level pseudo defender.

Alert: haters don't read this because apparently it appears to be a tad positive as well. Shared first, give it a go myself now.

 

[Bianconero81]

How can you not endorse Kahlua? With that smile, he reminds me of one of those Kenyan Marathon runners.

Obviously this transfer has a chance to come good IF he can stay fit and regain the form he had when he won the Scudetto but it's a massive IF

we shouldn't be taking risks like this anymore because we dont have the time or money

remember Ramsey, Di Maria, Pogba?

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

I am grateful to Milan for their generosity in this deal.

You would think that they clearly don't value this player this much to let him go on conditions so favourable to us - loan with an option to buy - but I think this just speaks to the great relationship we have where our gendleman rivals want to help us out in a tough situation.

Sorry bro but there is nothing to endorse on this deal. This guy is a huge question mark ,probably a panic buy. We are banking on him replicating his 2 seasons ago form.
Luckily it's an option to buy so there are more chances than not that he will end up in Milano , come season end.

What's funny is that Milan fans are pissed that there isn't an obligation to buy because they think this is the last window they can probably sell him , while most Juve fans are not happy that he doesn't look good enaugh.
