Improved Form Ups Abraham's Chances of Staying at Milan
Tammy Abraham seemed destined to fall out of favor after Milan signed Santiago Gimenez, but he has instead outperformed the newcomer in the last couple of months. The Rossoneri are more seriously considering keeping him past his loan spell, Mediaset informs.
Conversely, Roma would like to retain Alexis Saelemaekers, who has had a very solid season. The teams are slated to rediscuss such a swap on a permanent basis, although they'll have to concur on the price tag of the two players. The Belgian winger was valued a lot less than the striker in the summer. It's one of the main reasons why the trade only happened through temporary spells.
Milan ask for €25M to sell the 25-year-old, given the level of his displays this campaign, and Abraham could get to the same level if he kept it up. He has scored just thrice in Serie A but has been instrumental in the Rossoneri's deep Coppa Italia run and was a key contributor in their Supercoppa Italiana triumph.
The English center-forward would also need to come to terms on his salary. It is a tad rich for the club's standards. He took a small pay cut this season. Both players are under contract with their respective teams until 2027.
He's not too shabby when he manages to avoid injuries for a few weeks, as his energy and movements are always useful. The main problem is that he's too expensive not to be the top option. Unless they have burned such a bridge, they should mull over keeping Saeleamekers in their squad.

Mikaela Shiffrin says in essay she feels ‘like myself again' after recovering from ski racing crash, PTSD
Shiffrin was leading after the first run of the GS that day in Killington. With the finish line in sight on her final run, she lost an edge and slid into a gate, flipping over her skis. The all-time winningest Alpine World Cup ski racer then slammed into another gate before coming to a stop in the protective fencing. To this day, she doesn't know what led to the puncture wound, only that it was 'a millimeter from pretty catastrophic,' she told The Associated Press. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Shiffrin wrote in The Players' Tribune it was 'difficult to explain what the pain felt like. But the closest I can get would probably be, it was like … not only was there a knife stabbing me, but the knife was actually still inside of me.' Advertisement In late January, Shiffrin returned to the World Cup circuit. The giant slalom, though, remained a cause of anxiety and she skipped the event at world championships. Advertisement Ever so steadily, she's working on overcoming the mental trauma surrounding the GS as she gears up for the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Games. She won an Olympic gold medal in the discipline at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games. She's been working with a psychologist to conquer her mental obstacles. 'I can admit that there were some extremely low moments,' recounted Shiffrin, who won her 'On particularly bad days, I'd question my motivation, or whether I still wanted to do this anymore. In my head, I'd be saying to myself: You know what, I kind of couldn't care less if I ever race again.' She and the therapist began looking at her recovery through the prism of PTSD. 'With me, I also think it's possible that the crash I had at the beginning of 2024 in Cortina, and then Killington happening … that those two crashes maybe built on one another,' Shiffrin said. 'I talked with my therapist about that, and she let me know that past trauma, or a history of traumatic events, can sometimes affect your reaction to new traumatic events.' She lost her dad, Jeff, five years ago in a home accident. Her fiancé and fellow ski racer Aleksander Aamodt Kilde of Norway is still recovering from a serious ski crash on Jan. 13, 2024. Advertisement 'Maybe when I crashed and got that puncture wound, maybe that was kind of a perfect-storm situation for PTSD to take hold,' Shiffrin wrote. Shiffrin said one thing that's helped is 'getting back to a place of joy.' She closed her essay with: 'All I can do is smile with appreciation. Because, finally … I feel like myself again.'
