Official: AC Milan XI vs. Virtus Entella – Pulisic and Jashari feature as six senior players start

This morning, AC Milan will face Virtus Entella in a friendly to get players back up to speed ahead of the Derby della Madonnina.

Several players, for whatever reason, have not been called up to their respective national teams. So, Massimiliano Allegri has given them a chance to maintain fitness during the break. However, there is one player in particular whom the friendly is for.

Ardon Jashari, who has not been available since the end of August, thanks to a training injury, has featured on the bench a few times recently. However, this will be his first minutes, and this game is really for him.
