Nesta and Seedorf full of praise for Brahim Diaz: “Makes all the difference” | OneFootball

Brahim Diaz was named the man of the match for AC Milan in their 1-0 win against Napoli last night. As a result, he received a lot of praise post-match from two Rossoneri legends.

The Spaniard showed off his dribbling ability again, just like in the 4-0 trashing at the Maradona, as he helped set up the game-winner with a lovely turn. Indeed, he really opened things up for Milan on that counter-attack.

Speaking live on Prime Video after the game, as cited by MilanNews, Milan legends Alessandro Nesta and Clarence Seedorf both had tons of praise for Diaz. And they also weighed in on his future with the club.

Seedorf: “Getting past your man makes all the difference. One can make a thousand passes and not create a single chance. We need players who take responsibility, as Leao and Diaz did on the goalscoring occasion. When something special happens, it’s because someone got past their man.”

Nesta: “Diaz has these fantastic plays in tight spaces… I’m sorry for him to have this problem, deciding between Milan and Real Madrid that is (laughs).”

Diaz’s loan will expire at the end of this season and Milan will sit down with Real Madrid in the hopes of securing him permanently. However, it might not be that easy as the Bernabeu side have been really impressed with the No.10 as of late.
