‘He’s fine’ – Ecuador coach provides welcome update on Estupinan’s condition

This weekend, AC Milan could be forced into a few changes, and it seems Pervis Estupinan will not have to be one of those. 

There have been a few worries this international break, with a few key players seemingly struggling with injuries in some way or another.

Christian Pulisic should be ok, but he had an ankle flare up, Rafael Leao was sent home, Adrien Rabiot took a knock, and Alexis Saelemaekers has been told he will miss this weekend’s fixture at least.

It seemed, at one point, that the list could also include Estupinan, who had suffered a knock, too, causing him to leave the pitch injured. However, the signs are positive.

Relief with Estupinan

Like Pulisic, it was an issue with his ankle, and initial reports suggested that he would miss the game against Mexico and return to Milan. However, he stuck with the group, and the national team coach offered some reassurance today, via MilanNews.

“He’s fine, he’s fine. We’ll have him available; he’s in good condition.”
