With Mario Mandzukic still waiting for his first start with his new club AC Milan, the Rossoneri's head coach Stefano Pioli has assigned the Croatian a personalized work schedule, in order to get him physically ready as soon as possible.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, compared to the day of his arrival, Mario has already dramatically increased his potential minutes, although he does not yet have 90 minutes in his legs.
The short-term project that Pioli and his staff are working on, is to start their new arrival on Thursday 18 in Belgrade in Europa League round of 32's first leg against Crvena Zvezda, to give Zlatan a rest ahead of the derby against Inter on Sunday 21.
