AC Milan have been forced to fly to Saudi Arabia with a few players not quite ready, and they are key options.
Massimiliano Allegri’s team for the Napoli game will certainly be interesting, with the Italian keeping his cards close to his chest. However, it should be pretty standard by all accounts. Given he fielded his strongest team against Sassuolo, we can only imagine it will be the same here.
However, there may be a change or two if players recover.
Leao and Fofana’s recovery
Matteo Gabbia and Santiago Gimenez both did not travel, whilst six Milan Futuro players received a call-up. Then there is Rafael Leao and Youssouf Fofana, whose inclusion in the tournament is being questioned.
As Corriere dello Sport writes, the Frenchman has recovered from his muscle problem, and he will be ready. Then, there is Leao, but his case is not so simple. He has resolved the issue, but his place is a little questionable at the moment.
In his press conference, Allegri stated that today’s training session would give more information about when he will play, which the report confirms. At most, he will be on the bench for tomorrow, and if the Rossoneri progress, he will have the aim of starting.
