Santiago Giménez faces the decisive stretch of the season with more doubts than certainties at AC Milan. Recovered from his ankle injury, the Mexican forward returns to the scene, but his future in Serie A is not guaranteed.

The striker has completed the recovery process after undergoing surgery in December. Massimiliano Allegri confirmed that he is ready to reintegrate into the group, positive news for a team in need of goals.

However, as reported by 'Calciomercato', Santiago Giménez's return does not dispel the doubts. At San Siro, they appreciate his effort, but they do not see him as the differential striker that AC Milan needs to make a competitive leap.

Santiago Giménez fails to convince Massimiliano Allegri

Massimiliano Allegri was clear in analyzing the Mexican's physical condition. “It's a good sign,” he said about his recovery. However, tactically, the coach continues to seek a more decisive profile in the area.

In the first half of the season, Santiago Giménez was used as a central reference, alternating with profiles like Pulisic or Leao in more mobile positions. Still, his impact was inconsistent.

The numbers haven't fully supported him. He has seven goals and five assists in 30 official matches but has not scored in Serie A since May 2025. A long drought for a striker expected to lead.

AC Milan, which has struggled with efficiency throughout the season, has not found in Santiago Giménez the offensive beacon it expected after investing €35 million in his signing.

The comparison with other attackers weighs. Allegri values his mobility and ability to attack spaces, but he misses greater constant presence in the area and assertiveness in key moments.

Giménez will leave Milan in the summer

AC Milan and the crossroads after the World Cup

In Serie A, the margin for error is minimal. Inter has set a high pace, and the rossoneri need to secure a spot in the Champions League. Every decision in attack has direct consequences. Santiago Giménez now has two months to change the narrative. His environment, led by Rafaela Pimenta, insists on the player's desire to establish himself at AC Milan.

However, in the boardrooms, he is not considered non-negotiable. Last summer, there were discussions with Roma and inquiries from the Premier League, with West Ham and Sunderland attentive. AC Milan's management also explored other offensive options in winter. The loan of Fullkrug and the interest in higher-impact profiles reveal that Allegri is seeking alternatives.

Serie A as the ultimate test

The World Cup in Mexican soil looms as a turning point. Santiago Giménez wants to arrive in prime form and earn a leading role with his national team. The club is aware that his performance in Serie A and the World Cup will influence any decision. A brilliant tournament could significantly raise his value.

Alternatively, if he fails to establish himself in the final stretch, the scenario of a summer exit will gain strength. AC Milan will assess offers and redefine their offensive project. Santiago Giménez is under contract until 2029 with a salary of €2.5 million net per season. The financial commitment was significant, but football demands immediate results.

Massimiliano Allegri needs certainty to compete for titles. Today, although he celebrates his recovery, he doesn't seem completely convinced that the Mexican is his definitive striker.

The coming months will be decisive. Serie A doesn't wait, and neither does the market. Between the demands of San Siro and the World Cup stage, Santiago Giménez is playing for much more than a scoring streak.

Because if he doesn't fully convince the coach and the management, summer could mark the end of his Italian chapter. And it all depends on what Santiago Giménez offers on the field.
