Higuain like Kalinic, Silva and Matri: AC Milan with a long-lasting striker crisis

After Zlatan Ibrahimovic's reign at AC Milan, every striker has struggled at AC Milan, and Gonzalo Higuain is the latest example. From the more recent examples, there is Andre Silva, who scored two goals in 24 games last year, while Nikola Kalinic reached 6 in 31 matches.

In 2016/17 there was a complex trio of Bacca, Lapadula and Luiz Adriano. The Colombian scored 13 goals in 32 matches, Lapadula 8 in 27, while Luiz Adriano did not hit the back of the net in his 7 appearances. Before there were also Mattia Destro, Giampaolo Pazzini, Fernando Torres or Alessandro Matri.

The coaches have changed, as well as the formations and position in the standings, but the result, as observed by Il Giornale, has always been the same: Attackers who only left rare traces with the Rossoneri shirt, go elsewhere and resume their aim and conviction, like Andre Silva at Sevilla.
