Matteo Pessina’s penalty goal in the 45th minute gave Monza a two-goal lead just before the half was up.
Then Dany Mota doubled their lead during stoppage time. After Luka Jovic was sent off for elbowing a rival, Milan had a mountain to climb, but former Chelsea players Giroud and Pulisic worked together to give them a chance. Despite Pulisic’s incredible last-minute equalizer, Monza won 4-2 because to two goals after the 90th minute.
The San Siro team suffers a severe setback by losing the Serie A match, dropping them 11 points behind league leaders Inter, who still have a game in hand. Even though they had a difficult performance, they will be optimistic about moving further in the Europa League on Thursday when they play Rennes in the second leg of their play-off match after defeating the French team 3-0 the previous week.
Chelsea is “evaluating alternatives to Osimhen, who is linked to Paris Saint-Germain
The Blues added Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku to their front lineup last summer, bringing in players from RB Leipzig and Villarreal, respectively.
Osimhen is thought to be Chelsea’s top target, although they still planned to add a striker this summer.
Despite extending his stay until June 2026 in December, the Nigerian international is probably going to leave the Italian club at the end of the current campaign.

The France international informed PSG that he intended to quit the team when his contract expired in June, and it is anticipated that he would sign a free transfer to Real Madrid.
With Mbappe’s departure expected to save PSG over €200 million (£171 million) a season, they are prepared to spend big to get his replacement before the 2024–25 season begins.
The Standard is claiming that due to PSG’s interest, Chelsea is considering other options in the event that they are unable to get Osimhen.
According to the article, the Blues are reportedly considering Ivan Toney of Brentford and Evan Ferguson of Brighton & Hove Albion.аfter serving аn eight-mоnth bаn fоr breаking the Fооtbаll аssоciаtiоn’s betting pоlicies, Tоney hаs scоred fоur gоаls in five gаmes.
With his contract expiring in June 2025, England international Thomas Frank, the manager of Brentford, has acknowledged that he might be sold this summer.
Ferguson, on the other hand, is recognized as one of the Premier League’s most promising young players after making 43 appearances in the top division for the Seagulls and scoring 12 goals.
Given that the tоp-ranked prоspect has a cоntract that expires in the summer оf 2029, Brightоn is nоt under any imminent pressure tо sell.
Chelsea is rumored to be searching the market for other striker targets in front of the summer transfer window, in addition to Ferguson and Toney.
