MILAN, ITALY – AUGUST 28: Goncalo Ramos of AC Milan celebrates scoring his team’s first goal with teammate Alexis Saelemaekers during the Serie A match between AC Milan and Venezia FC at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on August 28, 2026 in Milan, Italy.

The Portuguese attacker is one of the highest-rated Milan players in Italian sports papers this morning, but other performers caught the eye against Venezia, especially Mario Gila in defence and Saelemaekers up front.
The latter was introduced at minute 59 to replace Alphadjo Cissè and was involved in both Milan goals. The Belgium international provided the assist for Ramos’ opener and set up Ardon Jashari, who wasted his chance but was still rewarded by Redouane Halhal’s own goal on the rebound.
