Simon Kjær fans have asked Milan manager Pioli to add the Danish defender to the lineup as a substitute and let him play the final three minutes against Sassuolo on May 22, 2022. It is the Serie A all-deciding match that could bring AC Milan the scudetto for the first time since 2011.
"Prego, Signor Pioli", said Simonkjaerscreenshots on Instagram. It's the fan account that published the idea. "How we would love to see Simon on the bench on Sunday at the Scudetto-all-deciding match against Sassuolo. And then play for about 2 or 3 minutes at the end." AC Milan is very close to winning the scudetto before Inter (83 and 81 points, respectively). "And they all can celebrate together", adds Simonkjaerscreenshots.
In April 2022 Simon Kjær showed up at San Siro
for the first time after his heavy knee injury. Ever since he has been watching several Milan matches from the bench as a spectator.
Although Simon Kjær joined his Milan teammates on the training field
after training alone for a long time,
he hasn't been added to the line-up yet. What would be a better moment for his comeback than the
last three minutes of the
final match of the season this Sunday?
