CM: Gimenez and Tomori struggling to overcome injuries ahead of Milan-Roma

17 hours ago 5

Whilst AC Milan received some positive news regarding Rafael Leao, it seems it will not be extended to others.

Injuries have not defined Milan this season, and Massimiliano Allegri will expect his side to continue on this path. However, it is certainly not an easy one. Against Atalanta and Pisa, the Italian will have expected more.

Yet, they probably look like much better points to pick up when you consider the injury issues that the Rossoneri are facing. Additionally, it continues the unbeaten streak that Allegri’s side are on, so the complaints cannot be too great.

Two are set to be out

This weekend, they face another big threat to that streak, with Roma coming to San Siro in hopes of another three points to aid their title charge, and they will find a squad which has clearly been impacted by injuries.

Recently, news arrived that Leao is in contention for the game, which is a boost. However, it seems like he will be the only one from the injured trio to do so. As Calciomercato.com reports, both Fikayo Tomori and Santiago Gimenez are still struggling and have not overcome their pains yet.

So, it seems likely that they will miss this weekend’s game. Koni De Winter is already ready to come back into the side. However, replacing Gimenez may prove to be a challenge for Allegri to solve, even if he now has three options with Leao ready.

Elsewhere, Pervis Estupinan looks set to return to the bench after overcoming his issue.
