Diego Moreira
MIL
Missing again versus Bologna
Moreira (thigh) won't be available midweek, La Gazzetta dello Sport relayed.
Analysis: Moreira isn't dealing with a significant problem but needs a few more days to make a full recovery. He could be back versus Inter later in the week. Davide Bartesaghi could get another nod against Bologna on Wednesday after showing well in the previous game.
Ruled out for Udinese clash
Moreira won't be an option against Udinese on Sunday because of a minor flexor problem, Gianluca Di Marzio relayed.
Analysis: Moreira picked up a mild thigh issue in training and will be re-evaluated ahead of Wednesday's fixture against Bologna. Pervis Estupinan, Davide Bartesaghi, Alphadjo Cisse and Omari Hutchinson will soak up his minutes, depending on the formation chosen by the coach for this one.
Adds assist
Diego Moreira assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-2 win against Atalanta.
Analysis: Moreira added an assist during Sunday's win, as well as sending in four crosses. The midfielder did well throughout the match to stay involved while also linking the midfield and attack. This is a busy part of the schedule with European action in full flow, and Moreira should be a key part of the team as fitness is managed throughout.
Six crosses in 1-1 draw
Diego Moreira registered two shots (one on goal), six crosses (five accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Sassuolo.
Analysis: Diego Moreira started his second game of the season and played the full 90 minutes for the first time this year. He completed five of his six crosses which led to two chances created. The winger has scored three goals so far this season, both of which have come in substitute appearances and this was the first shot on target that he had this season that hasn't ended in a goal.
Scores one off bench
Moreira scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 3-0 win versus Lecce.
Analysis: Moreira came on as a sub for Milan, managing to score a goal in the 21 minutes of play Sunday. He's recorded three goals now in just the last two appearances, in which both have been off the bench. Despite the depth role, he is conseridered a super sub as he will likely get some decent minutes off the bench for the team.
Brace off the bench
Diego Moreira scored two goals to go with four shots (two on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Lazio.
Analysis: Moreira was the reason for AC Milan getting one point, scoring two goals off the bench in Saturday's draw. The midfielder could get some run off the bench if AC Milan struggle in midweek action against Benfica, a team which has only allowed three goals in five domestic league matches.
Dealt to AC Milan
Moreira has completed a transfer to AC Milan from Strasbourg, according to his former club.
Analysis: Moreira is on the move this offseason despite looking to be set for a starting role with Strasbourg, instead transferring to AC Milan in Italy. He is coming off two breakout seasons with Strasbourg, where he started in 52 of his 59 appearances while bagging six goals and 13 assists. As a versatile player, he will open up plenty of options for Milan moving forward, able to play on either flank or in a central attacking role. However, Milan does have plenty of midfielder's nd rotate often, so he will need to compete for minutes.
World Cup ends with one appearance
Moreira made one appearance at the 2026 World Cup.
Analysis: Moreira was only on the field for one match as Belgium completes their World Cup campaign, with the midfielder playing 57 minutes in the round of 32 match against Senegal that made its way into extra time. He would earn five crosses and 10 passes in the win, doing little work at the World Cup. He will likely be more of a player of the future for Belgium, as he is a solid young player.
Whips in five crosses
Moreira registered five crosses (one accurate) and one tackle in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Senegal.
Analysis: Moreira finally got his first minutes of the World Cup on Wednesday, and they were in a big moment, with Belgium fighting to stay alive when two goals down. He would inject some speed into the team as they eventually came back for the win, helping greatly to put pressure on the box with his five crosses. This could lead him to more time in the round of 16, appearing to be a useful super-sub.
Three goal contributions in finale
Moreira scored one goal and assisted twice from five shots and three chances created in Sunday's 5-4 victory over Monaco.
Analysis: After his side went down 4-1 in the 55th minute, Moreira helped lead a miraculous comeback on the final day of the season with three goal contributions, including an assist on Martial Godo's winner in the 84th minute. It capped off a productive campaign for the midfielder as he scored four goals, recorded six assists and kept two clean sheets across 27 appearances (23 starts) in his second season with Strasbourg.
Suspension served
Moreira is an option again after completing a one-match suspension Sunday against Angers.
Analysis: Moreira hasn't started since Feb. 27 as he struggled with a groin injury and subsequently served suspension, but he's now in contention for an attacking midfield spot. His return could impact Samuel Amo-Ameyaw's and Gessime Yassine's playing time in upcoming contests. During the current campaign, the 21-year-old has scored three goals and provided four assists from 23 shots (nine on goal) and 33 chances created in 25 league appearances.
Suspended against Angers
Moreira (suspension) has accumulated five yellow cards in French competitions and will serve a one-match ban for Sunday's clash against Angers, according to Cyril Olives-Berthet of L'Equipe.
Analysis: Moreira's absence is an untimely blow for Strasbourg heading into the final fixtures of the season, with the Portuguese winger having been an important attacking option throughout the campaign. Gessime Yassine is expected to take on a larger role in the front line in his place as the Racing push through the closing stages of what has been a significant season on multiple fronts.
