Mansion Sports – Adrien Rabiot has emerged as AC Milan’s most impactful summer signing, and the French international midfielder is poised to make his return from injury for Sunday’s derby against Inter.

Milan is now preparing to welcome Rabiot back into competitive action after he successfully completed a full training session with the squad on Tuesday.

The Impact of Rabiot’s Absence on Milan’s Performances

The French midfielder spent nearly a month sidelined, and his absence was clearly felt as the Rossoneri managed only two wins and three draws during his recovery period. 

Milan might have collected more points had Rabiot been available, but he is now ready to rejoin the team for their upcoming encounter against their city rivals, Inter.

Rabiot Provides the Ideal Balance in Midfield

Rabiot has proven to be Milan’s most valuable acquisition of the summer, not only because he arrived on deadline day but also due to the sustainable terms of the agreement, including the structure of his salary. 

His presence has enabled the Rossoneri to achieve optimal balance, creating the conditions for Luka Modric to operate as a deep-lying playmaker in a system that suits him fully.

Milan’s Midfield Quality Continues to Stand Out

What has become evident is that Milan currently boasts the strongest midfield unit in Serie A. It is a combination that functions exceptionally well, especially with Massimiliano Allegri set to have Ardon Jashari available again—one of the club’s most significant investments from last summer.
