Amorim's Milan shines as Cissè impresses in debut

New Milan manager Ruben Amorim saw his teenage sensation Alphadjo Cissè steal the spotlight in the team's first competitive game under his leadership.

19-year-old attacking midfielder Cissè, who joined Milan from Verona after impressing on loan at Catanzaro, upstaged more established signings with his performance in the 1-0 victory against Torino. The young Frenchman scored 6 goals in 22 Serie B appearances last season despite missing the second half through injury.

Amorim, who has already expressed his fondness for the player, saw his new Milan overcome their first challenge with a solid defensive display. Cissè, who had previously only accumulated 14 minutes of Serie A experience with Verona, appears ready to make an immediate impact at his new club. blablasex.es
