Ruben Amorim Praises AC Milan’s Transfer Moves Ahead of Juventus Clash

Ruben Amorim, the head coach of AC Milan, gave his club’s summer transfer activity a flawless 10 out of 10 rating before their crucial Serie A match against Juventus.

The Portuguese manager expressed confidence in the squad, calling it the best in the world despite significant changes during the transfer window. He believes his players can continue their perfect start to the season when they face Juventus in Turin.

Strong Start Tested in Turin

The Rossoneri began the campaign with wins over Torino and Venezia, maintaining a 100% league record. If Milan beats Juventus, Amorim will join an exclusive group as only the fourth manager to win his first three Serie A games at the club.

This upcoming fixture is Milan's first since the transfer window closed. The team saw the departure of Rafael Leao, but their record signing, Goncalo Ramos, has made an impact by scoring his first Serie A goal in just his second appearance during the victory over Venezia.

Manager Dismisses Concerns Over Attack Depth

Despite losing forwards like Alvaro Morata and Christopher Nkunku, Amorim quickly rejected doubts about Milan’s attacking options.

"My players are some of the best in the world, so I’m not going to say it’s an eight or a nine. Every player we’ve brought in is perfect for our team, so I’ll give it a 10! I have the best squad in the world," said Amorim.

He added that while having two strikers with different styles could be useful, he feels confident in his current lineup, including the ability to rotate three attacking players. He referenced Christian Pulisic as an example of a striker whose profile fits certain tactical needs.

No Intimidation Facing Juventus

Juventus have also started well this season, winning their opening matches without conceding any goals. Amorim assured that his squad is mentally ready for this high-profile encounter.

"During pre-season, we weren’t winning, and already the pressure was there. We were rotating players, traveling a lot, but the pressure existed," he said.

Every match is important for top clubs, and facing Juventus is a real test of progress. Amorim is eager for the challenge and trusts his team’s preparation.

Turin Clash Could Define Early Season

The match in Turin is expected to reveal which side holds stronger early-season ambitions before the international break. Amorim faces the task of breaking down Juventus’s solid defense, which has kept clean sheets in both of their opening fixtures.

A victory on the road would keep AC Milan at the summit of Serie A and reinforce Amorim’s tactical influence in Italy.
