Is signing Fülkrog a justified risk, given his history of frequent injuries?
Lately I’ve been going back and forth about this possible move, mostly because it reminds me of something I saw with Milan a few seasons ago. A friend of mine and I still joke about how excited we were for a certain striker who looked perfect on paper, but then barely stayed fit. With Fullkrug, I get the appeal, but the injury history makes me hesitate. I’ve had this debate with friends after matches, and everyone seems unsure whether experience can really balance out missed games over a long season.

From my point of view, the risk depends a lot on expectations and squad depth. If Milan sign him as someone who needs to play every single week, then yeah, the injury record is scary, especially after watching how often he’s been unavailable. But if he’s brought in with a clear plan and rotation, it feels more reasonable. I came across https://sempremilan.com/few-goals-lots-of-games-missed-what-questions-does-fullkrug-answer-for-milan
while reading about this, and it explains pretty well why the club might still consider him despite the concerns. I’ve seen teams manage similar profiles well when the medical staff and workload are handled smartly.
