Maldini Jr training with the AC Milan first-team
The 17 year-old is the third member of the famous family to grace the club with his younger brother also in the youth academy.
Christian was one of several Primavera players to take part in Massimiliano Allegri’s training session today.
His development at Milan has largely been kept quiet, presumably to protect him from the immense pressure his name entails.
Pippo Inzaghi’s Primavera side were victorious over Ajax in the UEFA Youth Cup after they retook the lead late on to finish 3-2.
Like his father, Christian also plays as a defensive full-back, though is unlikely to be rushed into the first team any time soon.
