OneFootball continues its feature on promising football talents, this week highlighting a young striker who is making a significant impact in Serie A, potentially signaling a revival for Italian football.

However, after netting five goals in his first nine matches for AC Milan, he has already shown himself to be nearly as crucial as he was during his entire previous season. The Rossoneri are already pleased with their decision to invest eight million euros last winter to sign him.
Having just celebrated his 20th birthday a few days ago, Cissé has already made his mark in Italian football history. He achieved a remarkable hat-trick against Salzburg in the Europa League, becoming the youngest Italian player to score a hat-trick in European competition.
Known for his skill on the ball and ability to change the game with his dribbling, Cissé has impressed this season with his accuracy and calm demeanor in front of the net, as demonstrated by his first goal in AC Milan colors…
At just 20, the promising Rossonero appears to be a key figure for the future of Italian football, with speculation that national coach Roberto Mancini may include him in the squad for the upcoming international break in November. Fans might soon see him face off against Zinédine Zidane’s France.
