GdS: Kalulu named MOTM for Juventus against Napoli – ‘Him for Emerson Royal?’ | OneFootball

Pierre Kalulu has started his loan spell at Juventus in the best way possible and as a result, AC Milan fans are questioning the management’s decision to let him go. As highlighted by a newspaper, he was the best player for the Bianconeri against Napoli last night.

Kalulu played from start in the centre-back position for Juventus last night and helped his side keep a clean sheet in the 0-0 draw. As per Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), he was the best player in Thiago Motta’s side with a rating of 7/10.

“Make us understand: Milan sold Kalulu for Emerson Royal? Is that correct? Kalulu at Juve looks like Ruben Dias, Emerson Royal at Milan looks like Emerson Royal,” the motivation read as more people are starting to see what a strange decision it was.

Milan paid around €15m for Emerson Royal and James Horncastle has previously called it the ‘biggest donation in Fondazione Milan history’. Furthermore, before he eventually decided to leave, Kalulu was hesitant and would have liked to remain at Milanello to fight for a spot.

Unless he shows something in the derby tonight, Emerson Royal will continue to be heavily criticised by the fans and rightfully so.
