What happened. Gonçalo Ramos has failed to register a shot on target in his last three games and lost possession 16 times in Milan's 2-0 Europa League home defeat to Benfica. The striker has scored just one goal in five appearances across all competitions this season.
- Italian media heavily criticised Ramos after the Benfica loss.
- He managed only four touches inside the Benfica box.
- Milan reportedly paid €75m including add-ons to sign him from PSG.
Ramos must quickly find form to avoid becoming the latest Milan No. 9 to struggle, with pressure mounting after the Benfica defeat.
