Newly-signed Cagliari midfielder Alfred Duncan handed debut start against AC Milan

Ghana midfielder Alfred Duncan has been named in Cagliari starting line-up on his debut against AC Milan.

Duncan joined the Islanders on a loan deal from Fiorentina over the weekend.

The 27-year-old was named in the matchday squad for the crucial clash against high-flying Milan on Monday.

Coach Eusebio Francesco has however handed a starting berth to the Ghana intentional, pairing him with Razvan Marin and Gaston Pereiro in a three-man midfield.

Cagliari are aiming to a ten-match winless streak at the expense of the Rossoneri at the Sardegna Arena.
