Preparations are continuing at Milanello ahead of the game against Sassuolo on Sunday, and good news has come regarding Zachary Athekame.
According to the latest from MilanNews, Athekame returned to full training with the rest of the squad in today’s session. The Swiss player had been out since suffering a muscle problem with the national team in the last international break, and there was talk of him being out until Christmas.
That kept him out for a few weeks but his recovery has gone according to plan and now he is back with the team. He will be available to coach Massimiliano Allegri on Sunday, providing a boost on the right side where Alexis Saelemaekers has been working overtime.
Both Santiago Gimenez and Rafael Leao completed individual training this morning, so they are heading towards missing the match against the Neroverdi, which was anticipated based on reports earlier in the week.
Youssouf Fofana also worked separately on Friday afternoon. The goal for all three is to try to be available for the Supercoppa Italiana, which will see the Rossoneri play the semi-final against Napoli on Thursday in Saudi Arabia. Naturally, no risks will be taken and caution will be exercised.
