From the source
Koni De Winter, before the start of the season, may not have expected to be central this season, but he’s been key to AC Milan.
With talk of another defensive arrival on the way, De Winter spent most of the summer seen as a back up. After all, Matteo Gabbia was there and there may have been another by the end of the window.
However, as we approach the halfway stage of the season, he’s been at the core of the Milan defence. Alongside Strahinja Pavlovic, he’s rarely missed a game, and the Belgian has taken everything in his stride.
