Spanish midfielder loses confidence in Stefano Pioli.
The 2021/22 season for the Spanish midfielder of the Italian Milan Samuel Castillejo is far from being the most successful.
Already at the start of the football year, the 27-year-old player dropped out of the main clip of his team as a result of a severe muscle injury, so he could not help the Rossoneri during their performances in the UEFA Champions League.
That being said, and without serious damage, Castillejo's position in Stefano Pioli's team raised serious questions, as the player often remained out of the application for matches..
As a result, participation in only five meetings (122 minutes) puts the expediency of finding Samuel in Milan into a big question..
According to Italian journalist Nicolo Schira, in the near future the player may leave the camp of the “red-blacks”, having moved to the Genoese Sampdoria or Espanyol, who have already made contact with representatives of the midfielder.
It only remains to note that Castillejo's contract with Milan runs until the summer of 2023, and the current transfer fee is 5.5 million euros..
