AC Milan's midfielder, Sandro Tonali, will skip the game against Empoli, due to an injury. He has not been able to train with the Italy national team and he is not available for team selection.
In Tonali's other absence of the season, precisely in his league debut with Udinese, his replacement in midfield was Krunic. But, given the progress of Tommaso Pobega with AC Milan and even earning a call-up to the Italy national team, it is possible that Pioli uses him next to Ismael Bennacer against Empoli, as per Il Corriere dello Sport.
Sandro Tonali, however, could try to be ready for the game against Chelsea in the Champions League competition on October 5.
