It is the nickname that Commisso had coined in Florence after a victory in Bergamo. In Udine he will have to replace the injured Maignan: it is the debut in the Rossoneri in official races from the first minute
At 35, maybe they do not flutter butterflies in the stomach but, in short, to debut with the degrees as a starter in the Milan door always has a certain effect. This time for Pietro Terracciano there are no middle streets: these are not a matter of summer friendlies or ingresses in the course of work, but the promotion from precarious to owner of the chair. Temporary, of course, but corner stone for a Milan that in Udine is called to give continuity to the progress exhibited against Bologna.

Terracciano made his debut in official races with Milan against the Emilians, when Maignan at the beginning of the second half sat on the meazza lawn touching his calf. For a goalkeeper take over it is more complex than a movement player: it is necessary to go down in the part even faster, to manage the adrenaline discharge with wiseness, to connect immediately with his companions. Yes, of course, all things that anyone who enters the bench must do, but with the aggravation of an event that is not planned by the coach and a role in which the sense of responsibility is however different from that of the other companions. The goalkeeper is an average player always a little more only than his companions. Everything was smooth against Bologna, Pietro has kept the door closed, or the same thing that will be asked of Udine. Terracciano is the last shield of a defensive phase which, as per easy prediction, is destined to become the AC Milan cornerstone of Allegri. Then, when Maignan returns, Pietro will return to the second row without making noise.

He always did this, he did so also in Florence when De Gea was revealed. To be unbalanced in affirming that in his heart Pietro caressed the idea of remaining owner even after the arrival of the Spaniard, he is probably a gamble. But the certainty is that he accepted the downsizing with great professionalism and correctness. Is this the reason why he left Tuscany? Yes and no. Meanwhile, for the same “status” it is normal to aspire to a higher -end club. But then in the Viola house there was also a well -defined technical project, namely that of making Tommaso Martinelli grow next to De Gea and then replaces him when the Spaniard greets. In short, for Peter there would have been the risk of sliding further into the hierarchies. And then he greeted, without controversy, and greeted as a player highly appreciated by the club and the environment. The sporting life of Terracciano in the five and a half years Florentines was particular because every time he seemed to leave in the second row then he cooked the titular shirt on him. Above all between 2021 and 2024 “Being here is the peak of a path that started so much years ago and I am very curious to meet Maignan,” said the day of the presentation. Now not only has known him, but he must replace him: he is a devil who prays St. Peter.
