Hutchinson: "Milan is a dream come true. One of the best clubs in the world"

Omari Hutchinson is the latest signing of Milan’s summer session: the English attacking midfielder arrived on a loan with an option to buy from Nottingham Forest. The buy‑out is set at a figure close to €50 million: a great season will be needed to trigger this option.

The report from Milanello: the welcome ritual and the tests with Saelemaekers

After that, more sprints and restarts to overcome hurdles to test change of direction. Then the work with the ball begins: Hutchinson immediately shows himself with a brilliant dribble on Saelemaekers, who is surprised by the Englishman's quick double step.

The tactical role in the 3-4-2-1 and the battles for the attacking midfield

The Englishman was bought specifically to play as a right attacking midfielder in Ruben Amorim’s 3-4-2-1: the Portuguese coach likes to use inverted‑foot wingers to exploit crosses after dribbles and long‑range curling shots.

On paper, Hutchinson has all the qualities to thrive in the red‑and‑black system: fast, agile, slender and with lightning dribbling. He will compete for the spot with Loftus‑Cheek and probably with Rabiot, who could split his role between defensive midfield and attacking midfield depending on the match and the opponent.
