Well, not only did he score his first goal for Milan against Cagliari, he’s now picked up an award as well.
First Rossoneri goal and first @emirates MVP award! Way to go, Paquetá!

Ieri ha segnato il suo primo gol in rossonero e oggi lo avete scelto come migliore in campo di #MilanCagliari! Parabéns, Lucas! pic.twitter.com/gM1pjOgySG

I’m sure that this will only be the first of many, many more goals and MOTM awards to come.
