AC Milan squad is set to resume training and work at Milanello on December 30.
As reported by Tuttosport this morning, Pioli could receive his belated 'Christmas gifts' as some important players are set to return.
Davide Calabria, Rafael Leao and Ante Rebic, in fact, are in the final stages of their respective recovery programs and should be available for the first match of 2022 which is against Roma on January 6.
Another player who is currently working hard and intensely to reach his form again is Zlatan Ibrahimovic who missed the match against Empoli due to an overload to his left knee.
Olivier Giroud is also working hard to recover his form from the start of the season.
